Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doing English in Asia: Global Literature and Culture examines the effect of globalization on the curriculum of Asian universities. As knowledge of the English language has increasingly been understood as necessary to excel in international business, a number of Asian universities have replaced the traditional study of English literature and culture with applied English or English for specified purposes. This edited collection tackles the question of how to teach English language and culture through literature in case studies from practitioners all across Asia. Contributors thus balance the need for students to understand the interface between English cultures and their own with the pressure to prepare them for employment in this changing environment.

Book excerpt: Questions of morality in exploring alternate realities; goddesses of old, living in modern-day Philippine society; the flesh trade in a dystopic future; four childhood friends, taunting fate by crossing the line between life and death, and coming back again; a world where Justice is immediate, absolute, and therefore deemed perfect-these are but some of the ideas to have sprung from the mind of up-and-coming writer Eliza Victoria. In A Bottle of Storm Clouds, Victoria's first compilation of short fiction, her subjects are a mottled bunch; her characters, of all walks of life; her approaches, from all directions.

Book excerpt: What is preserved inside these pages is not just a collection of poetry and art, but a document of the phenomenon that will change the lives of the people of Earth for several generations to come. COVID anthologies are sprouting up everywhere and are soon to be common, but what the international magazine MahMag has accomplished in this particular collection is an up-front and personal view of the effects of quarantine, the fear of infection, and death affecting little children, grade school children, teenagers, adults, doctors, scientists, teachers, and people of all walks of life; told by everyone, not just practiced poets and artists. Some of these people were driven to create as a result of lockdown; what once were side hobbies have become integral forms of expression that help individuals grapple with the daily grim reality they witness outside their window, in the news, in stories brought home by their parents and family members, some who are working on the front lines. Readers will notice common themes emerging worldwide: The Earth has taken time to heal herself. Salute to healthcare workers. We did not take care of our planet before, but now we can begin in a new way. A view from my window. Looking forward to hugging again. Accounts from countries we do not hear enough from are collected in these pages. Opening this tome, you will now meet each of them for yourself. Poems composed in other languages have been translated into English. There are over 120 poets and about 100 artists from countries like Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Nepal, China, Philippines, Nigeria, Tanzania, Cameroon, Sri Lanka and more, so many more. Every frame of art has been mounted on the page in order to maximize viewing. Turn the book to see large-scale horizontals. You will find names you recognize and those whom you would never know otherwise. These people are your neighbors of Earth sharing this event with you. Everyone was touched by this Plague of 2020.By: Youssef Aloui

Could he work with both to find a way forward and help the Earth find a new stability? The Earth was in turmoil following the ravages of plague; the population was decimated; utilities greatly diminished, and looting and riots were frequent. Vicky and Trevor were hoping that Lord Pennywort, with his powers, would work with the nations left to bring back some stability,but would this all be too much opening the way for the Siriusians to move to Earth? Would it end Trevor andVicky's hopes of going, Ad Astra, to the stars. This book is not just science fiction, it has love and romance,wickedness and murder, warmth and laughter and a good sprinkling of suspense. It will make the reader sit up and take notice; it is close to the truth!

Book excerpt: With the death of his father, Sylvestre Carreon plans to rebel against everything his name stands for. He wants out of politics. Except that the incumbent President of the Philippines is hell-bent in crucifying him being the scion of the wealthiest political dynasty in the Republic. Sylvestre's only hope is to hide under the mantle of immunity--by becoming the next President. Burdened with a name synonymous with the words "traditional politician", Sylvestre needs to relaunch the Carreon brand if he wants to win. And bury a secret his family has been hiding his entire life. Once the most expensive whore in the history of Philippine advertising, Matias Fabula is now nothing but a washed-up metalhead who self-medicates with Valium chased by Jack Daniel's to silence the voices he is hearing. Voices that could keep his independent agency alive by helping him secure another client. When the agency lands its biggest account to date in the name of Sylvestre Carreon, Matias is faced with a dilemma he thought he would never have to face in all his years of making challenger brands become market leaders. As the election nears, Kristin Rustia, the head of the Communist Party, believes that one of the longest insurgency in the world should be brought to an end. That is, by starting a bloody revolution unlike the farce that is EDSA. But first she needs some funding so she can arm her comrades and surround the city from the countryside. Thankfully, revolutionary taxes are due from the presidential candidates. She can't wait to collect from the biggest spender of them all, Sylvestre Carreon. And settle an issue that made her the insurgent that she is. Subversivo, Inc. is a literary novel with an unexpected but welcome element of speculative fiction. Presenting a unique view of contemporary Philippine society, it is truly worthy of the Grand Prize in the 63rd Palanca Awards for Literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Krystal Hut: Stories joins the growing body of ethnic literature that has found a niche in the hearts of American readers. In this debut collection of ten richly imagined stories, we meet a contingent of Filipino-Americans, an immigrant group that shares deep emotional and historical ties with its adopted country. The stories take us from Hawaii to California and the East Coast, tracing with vivid details and compassion the emotional journeys of her characters in their quest for love, selfhood, and the American dream, even as they speak to the pilgrim in all of us. Achara poignantly dramatizes the strain of living in two cultures, comparing it to the 'delicate push and pull between the sugar and the vinegar' in the grandmother's relish recipe. In an award-winning story, Dust Storm, a bewildered Filipino youth, in the grips of a Thanksgiving Day family tragedy, asks: 'why do we have to celebrate Thanksgiving... it's not even our holiday?' In the title story, a Filipino widower's longing and search for an ideal wife from the old country collide the cruel realities of modern-day immigration. Written in understated prose and rich in irony, sensuous details, and humor, the book showcases the Philippine-born author's prize-winning and previously published short stories.
