Sojourner, Settler, Seer: The Complete Stories of Charlson Ong

These thirty-four stories are collected from Charlson Ong’s four compilations of his fiction published in a span of four decades, plus his never-before anthologized first published story and 2018 Likhaan Journal story. The final story is published here for the first time. The themes cover Chinese heritage, which is a particular concern of the famed Chinese-Filipino author, strained relationships, and historical and socio-political issues. Principally realistic, the stories at times veer into the territory of fantasy.
