''In the Claws of Brightness'' (Filipino: ''Sa mga Kuko ng Liwanag''), is a 1986 Tagalog language novel written by Filipino author Edgardo M. Reyes, originally serialized in Liwayway magazine from 1966 to 1967. The title ''In the Claws of Brightness'' is a word-for-word literal translation of the Tagalog title, which effectively makes little sense. A more practical English translation would be ''At the Verge of Dawn''. The story became the basis for the award-winning Filipino film, ''The Claws of Light''.〔 ==Summary== Julio, a poor fisherman, goes to Manila to search for his betrothed named Ligaya. Sometime before Julio's trip, Ligaya had left with a lady named Mrs. Cruz in order to study and work in the city. Now in Manila, Julio becomes a victim to some of the city's scums. Julio experiences abuses while working in a construction site. He eventually loses his job and desperately looks for a decent place where he can sleep. Slowly, Julio develops a cynical demeanor as he gradually loses hope of ever finding Ligaya. All this is put on hold, however, when Julio finally reunites Ligaya, and learns from her that she is a victim of white slavery. Julio and Ligaya plan to escape.〔("Sa Mga Kuko ng Liwanag" by Edgardo M. Reyes ) (Tagalog), kabayancentral.com〕
