Sa Ano Nabubuhay Ang Tao
By Leo Tolstoy (translated by Sofronio G. Calderón)
A poor shoemaker sets out to buy a sheepskin for the winter and comes home instead with a naked stranger he found sitting behind a roadside chapel. The silent young man stays on as his apprentice and in six years smiles only three times, each time for a reason he will explain at last. Tolstoy's parable, in the Tagalog translation of Sofronio G. Calderón.
