| 總結: | The World Is Still Beautiful (English translation of Lázaro Francisco’s Maganda Pa Ang Daigdig) is not any other “socialist” novel brimming with ideas from socialist thinkers. It showcases a superior display of historically specific situations that have bedeviled the country, constructs characters representing major classes in society, carefully weaves a series of interconnected episodes in a language that is masterful and truly powerful, as it reflects both popular usage and the writer’s consummate ability to bend it, fashion it as constitutive of reality.
