Discover Rizal’s Untold Romances
In Looking Back 16: Queridas De Rizal, renowned historian Ambeth R. Ocampo explores the lesser-known romantic relationships of José Rizal. These essays offer fresh insight into the national hero’s emotional world, revealing the man behind the monument.
A Cultural and Historical Reflection
In the Philippines, querida commonly refers to a mistress. But in its original Spanish, querida or querido means “beloved” or “cherished.” Through this lens, Ocampo reintroduces Rizal’s companions not as scandalous footnotes but as meaningful figures in his life story.

Let customers speak for us
from 84 reviewsLoved it so much i bought another Because I lost some weight. Love the designs and hope some new ones come out for me to buy
The beautiful cover illustration of Zsazsa Zaturnnah drew me in and the pages of dialogue kept me hooked! This has been the MOST FUN I've had reading comics in ages! I began reading it as soon as I bought it at the Liwanag Litfest in Long Beach. I was cackling with laughter all by myself and I didn't care if people were staring at me! My family was laughing with me as I read them excerpts of the dialogue! Aside from the funny antics, there's also themes of friendship, love (of self, of neighbors and romantic love) and believing in one's self. I'm glad I brought Zsazsa Zaturnnah into my life!
Fits good. It's part of my disguise when I'm deep in the country. Material is like any other hat
yaaaas!
Its good i like it so much even the story and art is good i hope something new this coming year im a pinoy an proud for being Filipino
My daughter saw the book when I opened the package after work. Started reading it at night and finished the first 7 chapters before bedtime then finished the rest of the book the next day! Now she's asking to buy the next book. :)
I love learning about different mythology and to do it through graphic novels was awesome. Also, I love to support small businesses, so no brainer. I was happy to discover this shop and will be happy to purchase more in the future.
I actually bought this as a gift for someone and they love it.
I love my Aswang Adventure Club bag. I can wait for my mom to see it and say,"Oh No!"
very accommodating, quality of the product is good
I know the description said it’s for older kids, but my spooky little Pinoy can't get enough of the art and the stories. As someone who grew up very disconnected from my heritaa fun way for my sons and me to get caught up. Maraming Salamat 🫶🏼
