Kristian Cordero on Bikol bookshop 'Savage Mind' | The Howie Severino Podcast
- last year
When Naga-based poet and filmmaker Kristian Sendon Cordero went abroad for writers' workshops, he noted independent bookshops being the cultural hearts of their communities. So he and his friends decided to start one in Naga with the intriguing name, "Savage Mind."
In this conversation, he explains the origin of the name, how the bookshop survived the pandemic, its essential service to the community, and why he has no plan to live anywhere else but Bikol.
