“Book Descriptions: Many books have been written about the Philippine seas, and yet, there never seem to be enough of them. These four essays in Dagaton captures the ephemeral nature of the element that binds us. Its closeness and otherness. Its wrath and embrace. Its ability to create and destroy. All of these collide in all their sickening, unpredictable motion, in multiple metaphors, without the need to reduce or reconcile them, for now.” DRIVE
