Bienvenido N. Santos
From Anarchopedia
Bienvenido N. Santos (1911 — 1996 January 7) was "One of the giants of Filipino American literature."
Santos wrote The Volcano. In 1980, the University of Washington Press published Scent of Apples, his first and only book of short stories to appear in the US. The next year it won the American Book Award from the Before Columbus Foundation.
Scent of Apples, is a masterful account of Filipino refugees living in America during World War II. Examines the racism these Filipinos faced, the class issues that they negotiated, and the attempts to survive in a country away from home.
