A story of love
and family amidst ever-changing political milieux, of understanding existence
and purpose-but, above all, embracing redemption in its countless forms.

This
novel spanning seven decades documents the life of Tomas Franco Cocoy

Sabater and his ascent to becoming one of the Philippines’s most callous
vigilante assassins.

Punctuated by news clippings from different generations,
essays and accounts from a perceptive journalist, internal monologues, a short
children’s story from a failed novelist, and a lingering homage to ballet and
kundiman, the story progresses in a non-linear fashion, conscientiously
dissecting Sabater’s tumultuous pursuit of reprisal as he tries to fix his
disintegrating relationship with his dying wife and growing daughter.

At
Night We Are Dancers is a story of love and family amidst ever-changing
political milieu, as well as understanding existence and purpose, but, above
all, embracing redemption in its countless forms.
