Buenavista

Buenavista--an agricultural place transformed into a congested semi suburbanite setting because of progress. The book recalls the struggles of the poor but resilient early Kamarinians, mostly landless but hardworking peasants who toiled the land of the well-to-do landowners just to exist meagerly.This is the story of the rural people, derogatorily referred to as "mga taga bundok" (the mountain people). They worked hard not to prove their worth but to survive. They survived because they were resilient; they endured because they were God-fearing people. They are the people of the barrio, and they have nothing to be ashamed of. They are proud of who they are and what they are.
