It took me a while to actually like this book since the intro didn’t entice me to continue reading it. I try not to be biased and continued on with the story and for a while it made me realize how the Moros were interpreted wrong by the Filipinos over the years.
Antonio Reyes Enrique is the author of several books of short stories and novels. He was born in Barangay Labuan, Zamboanga city in 1936. He was educated at a local Jesuit school in Zamboanga. His parents wanted him to study medicine and sent him to a university in Manila, but after several years, he returned to Zamboanga City without a college degree. Enriquez later did various jobs like writing a news and other features for various newspapers and magazines. He also joined a surveying company in Cotabato where his experience provided him settings and characters for his novel Surveyors of the Liguasan Marsh. Antonio Enriquez won a writing fellowship award which brought him to Siliman University where he graduated with a liberal degree in creative writing.
(taken from https://joeyzamora.wordpress.com/2016/ I’m not the type of person who reads a lot because I prefer watching. Whenever I start reading a book, a few sentences already makes me fall asleep. Although this is true, I know that I could never escape from reading because of my literature class. Through this class I got to read different stories like Green Sanctuary. A sanctuary is simply means a place where you can find peace, protection and safety. It is also considered as consecrated place such as church, synagogue etc. and where religious services are held. I believe that people have their own idea about sanctuary and how they make it significant to them. For me, being with my friends is what makes me feel safe and at peace. Being with them is where I can find my sanctuary.•
