Book Description
SEVEN CARD STUD WITH SEVEN MANANGS WILD is an anthology of memoirs by Filipino Americans. These stories are culled from memories growing up in different regions of the United States: from the urban jungle of Manhattan to the dusty farmlands of California. Contributing writers represent different generations, ranging from survivors of the Great Depression era in the 1930s to immigrants from the 1980s, escapees of an ancestral homeland in economic and political turmoil. In prose, our grandparents, parents, uncles, siblings, and assorted relatives and friends live once again, gathered around gambling tables, migrant camps, pool halls, and dining rooms. In poetry, we reflect on the journeys to fulfillment as Filipinos in America.
