Title: ANGELA MANALANG GLORIA

Angela Manalang Gloria (b. 1907) is the matriarch of Filipino women poets writing in the English language. Who is the woman whose voice is heard in her poems? What was it like to have been among the first generation of Filipinos aspiring to write a national literature in a foreign tongue? What did it take to be a female writer competing in the male-dominated arena of Philippine letters? How did she balance the claims of art against those of family?
