Answer:
Noli Me Tangere
Explanation:
Noli Me Tángere, Latin for "Touch me not", is an 1887 novel by José Rizal during the colonization of the Philippines by the Spanish Empire to describe perceived inequities of the Spanish Catholic friars and the ruling government.
Originally written in Spanish, the book is more commonly published and read in the Philippines in either Tagalog or English. Together with its sequel, El filibusterismo (Grade 10), the reading of Noli is obligatory for high school students (Grade 9) throughout the country. The two novels are widely considered the national epic of the Philippines and are adapted in many forms, such as operas, musicals, plays, and other forms of art.
The title comes from John 20:13-17 of the Bible, the technical name of a particularly painful type of cancer (back in his time, it was unknown what the modern name of said disease was). He proposed to probe all the cancers of Filipino society that everyone else felt too painful to touch.
