By Lio Mangubat
Published by Anvil Publishing, Inc., ©2026.
In a nation named after a foreign prince lie stories of invasions, collisions, and connections between cultures. Lio Mangubat continuously adds new fragments to the Philippines’ evolving narrative, unearthing stories and magnifying voices that have been lost to the past.
Mangubat sifts through the margins of history to reveal tales that range from fascinating to eye-opening to disturbing, from sea otters, crocodiles, and vengeful gods, to Nazi ties and Manila’s “emporium of slaves” during colonial times. Expanded to feature fifteen essays, this edition includes stories of the Ivatan at war and the giants that lived in the Philippines. Each essay evokes a sense of wonder and adventure, written with a curious and compelling voice that keeps you company in this strange detour of history.
