The book provides a critical framework with which to view
Mindanaoan literature. By way of interview, it presents the
writers’ personal backgrounds, their influences and creative
processes. The rich information in these conversations
complements the introduction which critiques the unbalanced
cultural and literary development in the Philippines in the light of
the center-region discourse. The writers interviewed are:
Leoncio Deriada, Noralyn Mustafa, Jaime An Lim, Christine
Godinez-Ortega, Calbi Asain, Lia Lopez-Chua, Telesforo Sungkit Jr,
and Almayrah Tiburon.
