Saanman: Mga Kuwento mula sa Biyahe, Bagahe, at Balikbayan Box
Edited by Jack A. Alvarez
However heavy the baggages and boxes they're bringing back home from their work abroad, nothing can trump the emotions that overflow when an overseas worker and their loved ones reunite after a long time. This book captures the departures and returns, the sacrifices and struggles, and the bittersweet joys of one of the world's largest diaspora. The stories provoke us out of complacency on the dehumanizing aspects of labor migration, and into finally recognizing the resiliency of both migrants and their families.
