Haays.. so much for this, gotta go!! Ciao!
I find this novel very liberating. This is a must read and must have book for all women who think that we can do whatever men can do and respect what men can do better at the same time.
The story is about the life of a writer, Coco whose life revolves from her passion in writing and how she was able to complete her novel despite having a very roller-coaster kind of relationship with her impotent-drug-addict-live-in-partner.
Along with her complicated world, an English-decent-married-man came to fulfill her sexual desire that her man can’t give.
How do you think Coco can handle this situation? What would be the ending? Will she end-up with her no-brainer live-in partner or with this hopeless-romantic English man?
This is a must have, must read chic literature!
Bob Ong: We have the same Philosophy professor, and that professor only teaches Philosophy in UST, DLSU and St. Scholastica’s College. And she wrote her own Philo-textbook which she required us to use it during her class. I don’t know Bob Ong – no one knew him. The only thing we have in common is our professor. Gosh ang galing niya no?
The name Bob Ong is derived from a phrase “BobOng” Pinoy. This writer and his writings are mirrors of Filipino’s values, traits and up-bringing -- pag dating sa galing, diskarte at kaswitikan – for sure Pinoy yan!
Kung Pinoy ka, makaka-relate ka sa lahat ng sinulat niya – at mananakit at kakabagin ang tiyan mo sa kakatawa.
He wrote novels or books like ABKADNKKBSN pla ako?, Bakit Baliktad Magbasa ang mga Pilipino, Alamat ng Gubat, Stainless Longanisa and Libro ni Hudas.
His first six novels were written with wit and humor, however, in his last novel, he came-up a heartbreaking story about how politics is co-related with poverty. Mc Arthur mirrors the life of some of our fellow Filipinos who are bound to suffer and forced to do some criminal activities in order to survive on this cruel and corrupt world.
Through his writing, Bob Ong gives faces to different kind of poverty in this country – poor financially, poor in spirit, poor in conscience and a corrupt mind …
It seems like Bob Ong knew when to be serious right?
