Answer: Noli Me Tangere
"Noli Me Tangere" is a Filipino novel by Jose Rizal that can be compared to the American novel "Uncle Tom's Cabin" for the
role it played in those nations' histories. Jose Rizal was an eye doctor from Manila who was angered by the disparate treatment
of the Filipino people by the Spanish colonists. His novel "Noli Me Tangere" focuses on a young mestizo man Crisostomo
Ibarra and his conflicting thoughts on patriotism, fidelity and revenge. His battle with the local Spanish authorities caused the
novel to be banned in the Philippines.
Rizal was fearful about even publishing the novel in the first place as he feared retaliation from the Spanish. The book was
originally published by a friend of Rizal's in Berlin in 1887. It was not widely circulated in Manila until 1899 and had only been
read in underground circles prior to then. Nonetheless, the book proved to be a catalyst for Filipino Independence.
