Elaine Castillo

    Elaine Castillo sa zameriava na skúmanie filipínskej identity a skúseností imigrantov v Amerike. Jej štýl je známy svojou úprimnosťou, humorom a prenikavým pohľadom na rodinné vzťahy a kultúrne stretávanie. Castillo skúma témy vy korenenia, hľadania vlastného miesta a vytvárania domova v cudzej krajine. Jej diela sú svedectvom o odolnosti ducha a sile ľudských väzieb.
