Title: Ironic Appropriation of Hemingway s For Whom the Bell Tolls in Bulosan s The Cry and the Dedication
Author/Creator: Robert Brown
Publication Details: CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture, Vol.15(2)
Annotation: Influence study. Explores parallels in plot, character, and theme, arguing that the later novel is essentially a Filipino re-envisioning of For Whom the Bell Tolls. Brown concludes that Bulosan s mimicry signals his intent to examine postcolonial politics and draw attention to a marginalized cultural group.
