Layag: European Classics in Filipino

More than five centuries ago, the first Europeans set foot on Philippine soil after miles upon miles of sailing the world’s hitherto impassable oceans. Now, it’s the Filipino, who gets to explore unfamiliar territory through Layag: European Classics in Filipino.

This pioneering anthology, spearheaded by the EUNIC (European Union National Institutes of Culture) - Manila, gives us a glimpse of the rich tapestry of European literature-from the myths and legends of Central Europe to the timeless tales of the West.
