{"product_id":"assembling-alice-9789814954105","title":"Assembling Alice","description":"Before and after the Battle of Manila, a Japanese spy and an American soldier have one thing in common: they both fall in love with Alice Feria, a pianist who would later become one of the first women journalists in the Philippines. Both would prove to be instrumental to her survival during the Japanese occupation and the liberation of Manila. Assembling Alice is a portrait of a woman as much as it is a portrait of the times she lived in. She came of age during the commonwealth period, survived both the occupation and the war, and did not write of her experiences as much as she spoke of them to those in her inner circle. Her experiences were sublimated into editorials she wrote for a small magazine called The Filipino Home Companion where she wrote of nation-building and what it meant or should mean to be a Filipino after the second world war. Inside these pages are the stories she told, and have been told about her.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-9749215\"\u003eMookie Katigbak-Lacuesta\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Random House Sea\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/16\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.00w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789814954105\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9814954101\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS058000\"\u003eWomen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House Sea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42659457171693,"sku":"9789814954105","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_3c4d8603-754e-43df-9711-0ca7ab5fd8d7.jpg?v=1649339655","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/assembling-alice-9789814954105","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
