Description
With the Filipino resistance movement during the Second World War employed as “background” of the novel, the focus of the narrative is Andres, a lawyer, and his two brothers. The three brothers were tortured by the Japanese occupiers by means of the horizontal spread-eagle "crucifixion" method. The brothers’ predicament echoed a similarity to “the Christ figure in the midst of temptation and at Calvary”.[5]
