"Nasawing Pagasa" by Angel De los Reyes is a historical narrative written in the early 20th century. The book explores themes of love, social status, and the struggles of the Filipino people against the backdrop of societal norms and expectations. It reflects the author's insights into the dynamics of wealth, dignity, and human relationships during this period, centering on the impact of poverty on personal choices and familial bonds. The storyline unfolds around the tragic love story of Tuning and Osong, who come from different social standings. Tuning's ambition leads her to choose a wealthy suitor, Ruperto, over her true love, Osong, who is impoverished. This choice spirals into a series of unfortunate events, culminating in the birth of a child that Tuning's mother harshly discards. The story poignantly addresses the fallout of greed and social aspiration, highlighting the loss of integrity and the tragic consequences of prioritizing wealth over love. Ultimately, the narrative serves as a critique of the societal values that prioritize material wealth over genuine human connections, resulting in the devastating fallout encapsulated in the title's message of lost hope.
