ONE doesn’t turn 70 everyday, and writer Alma Cruz Miclat decided that her 70
th birthday was the perfect day to release the second volume of her book celebrating Filipino poets, writers, and artists.
“The bulk of the book consists of features about Filipino poets, writers, and artists who make our country proud,” she said during her birthday party cum book launch on Zoom on December 15. These were collated from her articles in the aforementioned daily, but also the National Commission for Culture and the Arts’ (NCCA)
Sanghaya journals, among others.
Soul Searchers and Dreamers Volume II, is a sequel to the book released in 2015.
