My deep and heartfelt thanks to: all the individuals I met on my trips through the archipelago who generously provided shelter, time, and, most of all, their stories; Lilia C. Clemente, Loida Nicolas-Lewis, and Lily O’Boyle for helping to fund one of the trips; Eduardo Lago, Pascale Montadert, and Eugene Gloria for their critical readings of the manuscript at different stages of its existence; the Edna St. Vincent Millay Arts Colony (where I began this book) and the Fundacíon Valparaiso (where I completed it) for providing space, time, and solitude; Julie Koo and Sunyoung Lee, the stalwarts of Kaya Press, and especially to Sunyoung for her perceptive eye and invaluable editing; and most of all my wife Midori Yamamura, for her unstinting love, encouragement, and good-humored patience.
