Ang Singsing nang Dalagang Marmol
by Isabelo de los Reyes y Florentino
Translated by Carlos B. Raimundo
"Ang Singsing nang Dalagang Marmol" by Isabelo de los Reyes y Florentino is a historical novel written before 1905. One of the first Philippine novels to blend fact and fiction, it follows an unnamed narrator who survives a battle during the Philippine-American War and meets the wounded Colonel Puso. The colonel reveals his lost love for Liwayway, a woman from Baliwag, who was taken away by her disapproving foster mother. Separated by war and deception, their story unfolds through disguise and reunion.
