A novel you can enjoy as a pure romance love story, or-if you wish-a sociopolitical critique of the developing world, alongside an inspiring spiritual journey of the humble, resilient everyday hero. An emotionally powerful narrative achieving its objectives through its Trojan Horse structure: A high-performance Ferrari of absolute, hidden power... disguised in white denim and sneakers. A meticulously crafted story of multiple layers and highly nuanced subtext. Logline When Filipino American Cris and rural beauty Anna are drawn into a ten-day whirlwind romance, their short summer together unfolds as a love story for the Philippines, and years later, blossoms into a love story for God. ..... A deeply emotional romance novel... that absolutely subverts romance. ..... Synopsis "Orange, the Color of Sunset" explores the volatile, whirlwind relationship between Cris, a derisive, Manhattan-raised son of a powerful Philippine senator, and Anna, an academically accomplished yet fiercely guarded intellectual powerhouse rooted in her provincial community of Ilocos Norte. Their rapid summer romance escalates into intense ideological battles, reflecting deep class disparity, socio-political third-world corruption, and the resilience of the marginalized masses. Despite their abrupt and painful separation, their time together forces both characters toward significant personal transformation, in the hopes that, one day, their love may yet endure, for they are "just on Earth." .....
