A review by booksnpunks
Resistance by Julián Fuks

3.0

A book about brotherhood and it's complexities. I wanted to like this book a lot more than I actually did. It's short but the writing feels quite stunted and hard to wade through a lot of the time and it was this which stopped me from being fully invested in it. It's also very slow and not much happens so it was hard to get excited about. Sad because I usually really love the PEN winners but this just did not really do it for me. Gave it three stars due to some really moving moments at the end and because I know critically that this was a deep and provoking exploration of family and brotherly love however personally I didn't rate it much.
