Outpouring: Typhoon Yolanda Relief Anthology

Outpouring: Typhoon Yolanda Relief Anthology

On November 7, 2013, Typhoon Yolanda , the strongest storm ever recorded to make landfall, hit the Visayas region of the Philippines, devastating the provinces of Samar and Leyte. The storm claimed over 6,000 lives and leveled entire towns and cities. A few days after the storm, writer Dean Francis Alfar issued a call asking other writers to contribute stories for an anthology, the proceeds of which will go to the Philippine Red Cross. "Here then is the final result, an anthology of different stories by authors you’d never expect to share a same table of contents," says Alfar. "A number are by well-established writers, bristling with previous publications. A few are first publications. What these stories have in common, besides being well-written and engaging, is that they are all present because of the kindness of spirit of their authors. In the midst of catastrophe, I knew that my country did not stand alone."
