Linmark I. Turban legend was primarily pertains to the hardship and struggles of the filipino people outside of our country. In a specific sense, “a turban legend refers to a person of Middle Eastern descent who display a type of “legendary” comprehension of subject matter”. It is clearly viewed in literary that our love and care to our families are more than anything else in this world, which is a part of our culture as a Filipino citizen. We valued the importance of having a family and giving them what they want, and also what makes them happy. The highlighted part of the literary piece is the different balikbayan boxes that surround the airport. We have this idea that when you are abroad it is predicted that when you go back to the Philippines you have this balikbayan box with you. This balikbayan box thing in the literary speaks not just its literal meaning but the figurative reason and explanation behind it. Information about the work The narrator of the novel vividly explains what the character (Vince) saw on the airport- the different kinds of balikbayan boxes, and it seems that the character aren’t aware of what is it all about. He is partly unaware of the story behind of each box. Well, in fact, those boxes possessed different stories, and the one who carries it are the one who is capable of knowing the story. Statement of the topic and purpose Turban legend has the objective to show the true story of each balikbayan boxes, it does not focus on what is contained in the boxes, but what hardship and pain our countrymen abroad are experiencing. In some point, it educates the reader to appreciate and acknowledge their hard works just to sustain the needs of their families here in the Philippines.

Interpretation and/or evaluation As you read this literary piece, it requires you to step back and look at the bigger picture of what the piece is pertaining to. It requires a lot of effort, emotion at the same time sympathy to fully appreciate and understand what the author wants his readers to realize. Discussion of work’s organization The way the author provides information, on how he organizes the details and creates an illusion about Turban Legend is thought - provoking. It involves a deep thought on what is actually happening in a real life situation. Effectiveness Turban legend is created with lots of interesting part, starting from the very beginning until the end. The scenario was treated as a flowing idea of what will happen on the next part, and I guess that is the main purpose of every literary pieces, to create thrill and supply our minds with curiosity.
