Cadena de Amor and other short stories

"The stories of Wilfiendo D. Nolledo will remain synonymous with seduction, wizardry, and intoxication. Eloquent and dazzling are additional lauds for his trailblazing fiction since the Sixties--those halcyon days when readers and budding writers recognized the premium in language as fresh and riveting as the substance it spun and wove. Oh, how we marveled at his narratives of romance, grief, heroism, and failure. Thrilled to lyrically adroit, virtuosic articulation. He lives on; his powerful prose lives on--to amaze more generations of writers and readers. Bravo, Nolledo!" Alfred A. Yuson, Novelist, Poet, Critic, Columnist "Ding Nolledo's quiet intensity often masked the fact that he stood at the cusp of a struggle in Philippine literature. He defied standards drawn from American literary theory and propagated by American critics; he used English as a Philippine language--one reflective of the multi-layers of the archipelago's culture and hence more capable of expressing the passion, rage, and confusion of the Filipino's colonized soul." Ninotchka Rosca, Journalist, and Novelist.
