The Writer and His Milieu: An Oral History of First Generation Writers in English

The book documents the first generation of Filipinos writing in English during the early-to-mid 20th century.

A literary analysis by Rosario Cruz Lucero notes that the book treats the interview as a unique literary genre. It captures authors in a state of "stylistic deshabille" (informal, unfiltered conversation), blending deep literary revelations with personal trivia and biography.
