Review:
A work of such genuine commitment, balanced perception and responsive passion that it will certainly be condemned to become a classic. (New York Times)
A classic travel book... entirely original: at once astringently and gorgeously written. (Andrew Harvey)
Unforgettable. The Philippine landscape and these remote islanders are crystalline and at the same time mysterious; the writing itself superb. (Ronald Blythe)
