The Josè Rizal Library invites the listener to enter the pages of a nation’s awakening. Here are the works of José Rizal read in full: words born of love for country, sorrow for injustice, and faith in the power of truth. In these books, the oppressed are given voice, the proud are summoned to conscience, and the Filipino spirit is called to remember its dignity. May each chapter be not only heard, but pondered; not only enjoyed, but carried like a quiet flame.Public domain
