Hoard of Thunder: Philippine Short Stories in English, 1990-2008 (Volume II: 2001-2008)

Hoard of Thunder, together with Upon Our Own Ground (2008) and Underground Spirit (2010), completes the six-volume historical anthology series on our short stories over 1956 to 2008. The Introduction to Hoard of Thunder is an overview essay on our short fiction since 1925 to the present. Throughout the series, the stories forge from English our writers' imagination of our own historical experience as a people: how we Filipinos think and feel about our world and so, justify the way we live.
