Marcos suspended civil rights and imposed military authority, claiming it was necessary to quell rising violence from communist and rebel groups that threatened national security.

masterpiece by Mike de Leon.

 is considered a literary benchmark in the form-&-content paradigm, a
passionate testament from a bourgeois intellectual who had, in the
