Slash and Burn by Claudia Hernández

challenging emotional slow-paced
I’m torn on this one. On one hand, the centering of women’s experiences during and after the El Salvadoran Civil War is very powerful, yet the complete lack of names makes this quite a confusing and difficult read. I lost a bit of the plot thread especially in the back half. I understand that removing names generalizes the story to the country, but I think it detracted a bit from the narrative for me.
