                    [Summary] => Nick Joaquin was a story teller.  As a writer, he was touched by the hand of God.  He had an intensely sensitive soul, and a magnificent pair of eyes and ears.  He had the power to put into words the most passionate emotions which people usually keep hidden deep within themselves.


Long ago, he wrote a play called:  "Portrait of an Artist as Filipino".  I saw what I think was its first presentation — outdoors, in Intramuros, with the stage built up against the ancient walls, and the narrator, Totoy Avellana, high above the stage, on top of the wall.
