About this ebook
The great novel of the Philippines
In more than a century since its appearance, José Rizal's Noli Me Tangere has become widely known as the great novel of the Philippines. A passionate love story set against the ugly political backdrop of repression, torture, and murder, "The Noli," as it is called in the Philippines, was the first major artistic manifestation of Asian resistance to European colonialism, and Rizal became a guiding conscience—and martyr—for the revolution that would subsequently rise up in the Spanish province.

Mas maganda pa to basahin kesa sa wattpad na puro OA ang storya tsaka puro bed scenes tapos paikot ikot pa ang istorya nakakalungkot lang kasi mas inuuna pa ng mga kabataan ngayon ang magbasa sa walang kwentang Wattpad kesa sa Historical books gaya nito.Yun lang po and i hope wag po kayo magalit sa akin because this is my own opinion bye!❤️
