The first book of poetry by Xenia-Chloe Henson Villanueva, Deskaril: 5 Stations in Verse recalls personal, political and cultural events that shaped young Filipinos who grew up between Metro Manila and their hometown - wherever that may be. Tackling everyday realities, the poems prompt negotiations between one's regional language and identity, one's passion and one's job, the national over the individual.
