Between Two Worlds: The Filipino Identity Abroad, Volume II (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798261714583)

THE FILIPINO DIASPORA COLLECTION
A Literary History of a Nation Across Oceans

Series Overview
The Filipino Diaspora Collection is a multi-volume exploration of a people's journey through time, distance, and identity.
It traces how the Filipino spirit - forged in islands, scattered by history - continues to find home wherever it goes.
Each volume is both historical and intimate, weaving together research and storytelling to illuminate the many faces of migration: the workers and dreamers, the exiles and visionaries, the children born between worlds.
Through narrative essays, historical portraits, and reflective prose, the series asks one enduring question:
What does it mean to be Filipino when home is everywhere - and nowhere at once?
