Los PÃ¡jaros de Fuego	comment	Los PÃ¡jaros de Fuego (in English, "The Birds of Fire") is a Spanish-language novel by the Filipino Hispanophone author JesÃºs Balmori. It was the last of three known novels he wroteâ€”he finished it during World War II and died a few years later in 1948â€”but it was not published in his lifetime or long after. Only in 2010 did it finally get published by the Manila chapter of the Instituto Cervantes foundation, and primarily for archival rather than consumer use, and only in early 2022 did it finally get a full English translation by Dulzorada Press through Robert S. Rudder and Ignacio LÃ³pez-Calvo.It depicts the Robleses, an Old Money colonial aristocratic family whose idyllic lives in Philippine colonial capital Manila, in the "slackening" shadow of U.S. colonial rule, are shockingly disrupted by World War II and the Japanese occupation. The titular pÃ¡jaros de fuego ("birds of fire"), naturally, refers to Japanese Zero fighter planes.Compare A Portrait of the Artist as Filipino, a (mostly) English-language play by Filipino National Artist for Literature Nick Joaquin, which similarly touches on Manila-based elites dealing with the portent of World War II.

Los PÃ¡jaros de Fuego / int_d13eb235	comment	Occidental Otaku: Don Lino Robles, whilst technically a Filipino and therefore ethnically Asian (mostly?), is raised in a very Old-World, Hispanic/European (and therefore Western) elite culture, and yet in this late period he takes avidly to Japanese cultures and customs, and even loves a Japanese woman. This bites him hard in the ass when the Japanese invaders start attacking and abusing his family.
