Synopsis


While the Blanket is Short, Learn to Curl Up speaks of a world that is at once both foreign and familiar, exotic and mundane, localized and trans-global, but always human. These stories from the Philippines and its global Diaspora reveal the intimate spaces of a culture in transition. They explore the triumphant and tragic aspects of a community like no other, with characters and circumstances that inspire the imagination and pull at the heart strings.

______

"A wonderful book ... Mike Hawkins explores the minds and hearts of Filipinos, allowing us to feel their passion, pain and loneliness."
-- Rosemary Sneeringer, The Book Nurturer

"A multifaceted collection of short-stories, these narratives reflect the unique lives and experiences of individuals while knitting together a larger Filipino narrative. This book successfully questions the one-dimensional portrayal often attributed to Filipinos today and is definitely a worthwhile experience for any reader."
-- Philip Cerepak
