Quoted from Butch Dalisay's blog:

Quote:
Soledad’s Sister (Anvil Publishing, 194 pp.) is now on the shelves of National Bookstore, selling for P275 the newsprint copy. (There’s a pricier version on better paper at P495.) ... We’ll have a formal launching for the book next month, on July 22, in UP. Stay tuned!

Update:

It seems -- according to one of Butch's comments in his blog, that launch has been moved to the 31st of July, 4pm at the UP Faculty Center Conference Hall.
