Monstress by Lysley Tenorio, is a story from the Philippines, steeped in the movie poster atmosphere of Manila. My missus tells me this is pretty good. She's hogged June's Atlantic Monthly so I've only read the first few paragraphs so far.



I have the new edition already, which features a new short story by Garrison Keiller, a great favourite. The story's not so hot, but it is funny. I'll put up the link as soon as it comes online. The story is a framework for a lot of Agony Aunt questions and answers.
