Ang Mga Pahina ni Lola

by Lakambini Reyes

The will said: the library goes to the one who will talk back to it. Fourteen boxes arrive on a Tuesday — Lola's whole reading life, sixty years of margins, arguments, pressed jacaranda, and one word written at the end of every finished sitting. A novel about inheritance measured in annotations, and a granddaughter who finally takes up her half of the correspondence.
