Sensing Manila

Sensing Manila directs us to another trajectory of urban and Manila studies- how we make sense, using senses, of our beloved city. Weaving a diverse range of tropes-from Philippine literature, ethnography in a gay bar, and videoke to fastfood consumerist subcultures, among others-Gary Devilles offers a sensible and sensitive mapping of Manila as amalgam for Metro Manila and the nation's premier cosmopolis, and within global neoliberalism. It is a captivating and mesmerizing critical read of the formation and transformation of Manila, and its consequences for Philippine and global localities and identities. -Rolando B. Tolentino
