Edited by Regina Abuyuan, this book reflects the confrontation between climate change and diverse cultures across the Philippines. It combines original works in prose, verse and photographs and depicts uncertainty - and tenacity - from the Filipino perspective. The title - Agam - an old Filipino word for uncertainty and memory - captures the essence of this book. It includes twenty-six images and creative narratives in eight Filipino languages, with translations in English, by twenty-four writers representing a broad array of disciplines - poets, journalists, anthropologists, scientists, and artists.
