A review by kohava
Boxers by Gene Luen Yang
5.0
Real talk, this is the best portrayal of the consequences of white supremacist imperialism I've ever seen. Y'all know how I feel about history and historical fiction, and this is the one of the most impressive blends I have ever seen. The visuals are stunning. Yang cuts no corners and spares no one.
I've seen a tagline for these two books that reads "every war has two faces", but that tagline is totally superfluous. There is no black and white in war, and this book is nothing but shades of gray.
Gene Luen Yang is a fucking wizard and I hope he lives forever.
