Dugo Sa Bukang-Liwaway (Bleeding Sun)

English

By (author): Rogelio Sikat

What will become of our grains, Father? Simon asked with apprehension. He had helped his father plow the fields and, like him, the storm had crushed his spirit, too. On the night Simon is born, his mother passes on from childbirth. Their landlord had refused to lend Tano his car to take his bleeding wife to the hospital. Belonging to the poorest province, Tano toils tirelessly on the fields and raises Simon. He sends him to school in the hope of giving him a better future, a different fate. As old age catches up with Tano, the landlord fires him and refuses to let Simon take his place at the farm the fields Tano had tilled for almost forty years. When Tano passes on, Simon is left all by himself. He graduates from high school and leaves the village, a silent vengeance growing inside him. Would Simon return to the village? Will he get his revenge? The journey of a poor farmers son, Bleeding Sun is a novel about agrarian reform. See more
