A summary of the story entitled the mats by francisco arcellana. They have our names woven into them and in our ascribed colors too. The short story moved me and made me a bit depressed. The mats is set somewhere before world war ii.

The story depicts a typical filipino family culture. Talk about the mats flared up again like wildfire. It reminded me of my beloved father who passed away a year ago from a lung cancer. The story entitled the mats was written by francisco arcellana one of the meritorious literary filipino artists.

The letter was read aloud during the noon meal. There is no specific season for the said story but the story evolves in the evening. As the story opens mr angeles head of a large family has just returned from one of his periodic inspection tours on the families farm lands in the marivales in the province of bataan. It was in the time when people did not sleep in beds but slept on mats.

The time setting for the action is in the afternoon.
