A review by sanabanana
Boxers by Gene Luen Yang

adventurous dark emotional informative reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

Yet another major historical event that I was never taught about in school. I had heard of the Boxer Rebellion when I was younger purely because of my fascination with history, but never have I read about it in such a format and with such amazing storytelling and art and symbolism. This was such a very creative and witty retelling of one side of the boxer rebellion and Gene Luen Yang did not shy away from illustrating some gory and violent art amongst all the tragedy, heightening the loss and shock.
