Adrian Cristobal: Pasquinades

In Pasquinades, Palanca Award-winning satirist and columnist Adrian E. Cristobal turns his legendary wit and razor-sharp intellect on the shifting tides of Philippine political life. Compiling his most potent essays, social critiques, and select columns, this collection serves as a modern lampoon of institutional greed, public folly, and the absurdities of power. With uncommon valor and an unyielding passion for ideas, Cristobal cuts through the noise of post-EDSA democracy, offering a brilliantly dark, humorous, yet profoundly earnest examination of what it means to be Filipino in a landscape marred by political circus. It is a vital masterclass in subversive literature, proving that the pen remains the ultimate weapon against complacency.
