Canticles for Three Women is an incredible social history that spans the years from the turn of the century to the present. It focuses on the Montt family, particularly the three women who figure after the death of the patriarch and are left to deal with peasant rebels, cult armed groups, corrupt officials, bankers, compradors, the oligarchs living in guarded villages like Dasmarinas and Forbes Park, and agents of the Central Intelligence Agency.
