I heard author Gina Apostol interviewed on NPR recently about her new book, Insurrecto (#792). It's about an unsung Filipino heroine of the Philippine-American war at the beginning of the nineteenth century, so I was excited to find it at my local library.
I couldn't make enough sense out of a jumbled beginning to want to continue reading after ten pages, but I forced myself to read twenty, hoping it would get better. It didn't. I found it unreadable. Hope you have better luck with it than I did!
