Description

Boxers is a graphic novel by Gene Luen Yang that tells the story of Little Bao and his fight against foreign devils in 19th-century China. Harnessing the powers of ancient Chinese gods, Little Bao recruits an army of Boxers to free China from oppression. As the rebellion gains momentum, the lines between right and wrong become increasingly blurred. Thousands of "secondary devils" - Chinese citizens who have converted to Christianity - are caught in the crossfire, leading to a violent and complex outcome. This innovative graphic novel is presented in two volumes, offering a nuanced exploration of war, identity, and the human cost of revolution. Yang's work explores themes of resistance, faith, and the struggle for power in a tumultuous period of Chinese history.
