Ang Kalye Nga Wala Sing Kamatayon

This book gathers in one volume Leoncio P. Deriada’s short stories in English, Hiligaynon, and Cebuano that received the prestigious Don Carlos Palanca Memorial Awards for Literature. The Hiligaynon and Cebuano stories in this collection were translated into English by Deriada himself. This book fortifies Deriada’s standing as one of the best fictionists the Philippines has produced. Deriada is the legendary writer and mentor who cleared the way for younger writers especially in Western Visayas. He wrote in the four languages of the region—Hiligaynon, Kinaray-a, Visayan-laced Filipino, and English. He is the proverbial road that will never die, a “kalye nga wala sing kamatayon,” not only for Visayan writers but also for other Filipino writers. —From the Introduction Editor: Dulce Maria V.
