El Filibusterismo (1891) is José Rizal's sequel to Noli Me Tángere — a sharper, more radical novel written in exile in Ghent. Crisóstomo Ibarra returns to the Philippines as the vengeful jeweler Simoun, moving in the highest circles of colonial society while quietly plotting revolution. This app brings Rizal's second novel to your iPhone and iPad in both its original Spanish and a classic Tagalog translation, with a reading experience built to honour the weight of the text — not a document viewer, but something that feels like holding the book itself. FEATURES - Read Aloud — Full narration in Spanish, with the current word highlighted as it reads, adjustable playback speed, and play/pause controls. Listen on your commute, or follow along as you read. - Dual Language — Switch instantly between the original Spanish (1891) and the classic Tagalog translation by Patricio Mariano. Reading position and bookmarks carry across both. - All 39 Chapters — The complete novel, from "Sobre-Cubierta" to its unflinching final chapter, with chapter illustrations in the woodcut tradition. - Highlights & Bookmarks — Select any passage to highlight and save it. Featured passages rotate on the title screen. Share quotes as designed cards. - Mga Tauhan — Character profiles for Simoun, Basilio, Isagani, Padre Florentino, and the rest of the cast, in Tagalog. - Mga Aral — Curated lessons and quotations on love, justice, and belief, drawn from the text. - Typography-First — Set for deep reading, with a parchment aesthetic, ink tones, and serif type throughout. - Chapter Navigation — Previous/next controls at the end of every chapter, so reading flows without returning to the table of contents. No account. No ads. No tracking. The novel text is public domain (Project Gutenberg) and bundled entirely on-device — the app makes no network requests to load content. A companion to the Noli Me Tángere app, from the same developer.
