The Man Who (Thought He) Looked Like Robert Taylor

''The Man Who (Thought He) Looked Like Robert Taylor'' (1983) is a book written by Filipino-American novelist and short story author, Bienvenido Santos.〔 The title basically imparts that the protagonist of the novel lived believing that he has a semblance to his idolized American actor, Robert Taylor.〔 This fiction by Santos is regarded as one of the finest examples of exceptional English-language writings about the personal, emotional, and moving experiences of Filipino migrants in America.〔Nelson, Emmanuel Sampath.

==Description==

The story is about a Filipino immigrant named Solomon King, a man who was born in Sulucan, a town in the Philippines. Moving to the United States, he lived by himself in Chicago for thirty years. While in America, although he kept mementos from his Philippine hometown, he felt alienated and ignored while surrounded by Polish people living in Chicago. Aging as he was, he decided to travel to Washington, D.C. to search for earlier acquaintances. He, together with other Filipinos of his generation, became further estranged by "better educated" Filipinos he encountered along the way, adding to his bitterness in experiencing a weakening in the "spirit of ethnic unity".〔(Criticism from Leonard Casper ), In an essay, Casper discusses the displaced person theme in Santos's work ''The Man Who (Thought He) Looked Like Robert Taylor'', Section: Criticisms, ''The Man Who (Thought He) Looked Like Robert Taylor and "Immigration Blues"'', Bienvenido Santos, 1977, novelguide.com〕
