520 | |a Lito Macaraeg reaches out to his estranged son, a journalist who lives in the United States far from his father's Manila nursing home. He was a personal driver for Imelda Marcos, the flamboyant wife of the late Philippine dictator. Lito has a scoop for his son: a secret meeting between Imelda and Corazon Aquino, the wife of the opposition politician who was allegedly killed by the Marcoses. As Lito unspools his tale about two women whose choices shaped their country's history, his own story, and failings, slowly come to light. In the end, it is Lito himself who must contemplate the meaning and possibility of forgiveness. -- adapted from jacket | ||
