    Anting-Anting Stories

    and Other Strange Tales


    S. Kayme

    of the Filipinos Anting-Anting Stories

    by Sargent Kayme

    "No less wonderful and varied are the inhabitants and the phenomena of the
    Philippines, and a new author, showing rare knowledge of the country and its
    strange peoples, now gives us a collection of simple yet wonderful stories which
    bring them before us with dramatic vividness... Strangest, perhaps, of all these
    possibilities for fiction is the 'anting-anting', at once a mysterious power to protect
    its possessor and the outward symbol of the protection..." (From the Foreword)
