- Summary
- First came the Sexy-Sexygate scandal. Then an impeachment trial. Finally, a battle royale for the presidency. At the centre of this political typhoon is Vita Nova, the most famous movie star in the Philippines and a former paramour of the country's most powerful man. Now, for the first time ever, she bares herself completely in a tell-all memoir that puts the sensational in sensationalistic. The setting: a sweating, heaving country. The time: right now. The plot: a drug war rages, an assassin brandishes a pistol, a damsel rises from ashes to power, and a government teeters on the brink. Among the players: a dreamer who boxed and acted his way to the presidency, his Koran-toting nemesis in the senate, a horny bishop, a cowboy turned warlord, a poor little rich boy dying with his dynasty, a washed-up reporter redeemed by one last scoop, a high-school sweetheart driven mad by decades of disappointment, and an American naval officer tempting our heroine with a way out. As Vita warns, viewer discretion is advised. In this masterful and audacious novel, Miguel Syjuco's signature style 'hilarious, insightful, playful, provocative' animates thirteen indelible voices whose stories present a cross-section of a complicated society. I Was the President's Mistress!! Hurtles headlong into love, politics, faith, history, memory, and the ongoing war over who will tell the stories the world shall know as truth
