From UG, An Underground Tale: The Journey of Edgar Jopson and the First Quarter Storm Generation: "Symbolic coffins mourning the death of the 1970 Constitutional Convention and of students killed in the aftermath of the January 30, 1970 siege of Malacañang and the Battle at Mendiola led by the leftist Kabataang Makabayan."

The book, published by Anvil in 2019 is about Edgar Jopson, who “At 22, …had everything: money, education, national recognition. But he gave up his life of privilege to join the underground movement—the U.G. This book traces the unique, dramatic odyssey of the most intriguing figure of the First Quarter Storm and of the generation of young Filipinos who helped shaped Philippine history.”
