Resistance - Barry Lopez

From the National Book Award-winning author of Arctic Dreams, a highly charged, stunningly
original work of fiction-a passionate response to the changes shaping our country
today.

In nine fictional testimonies, men and women who have resisted the mainstream
and who are now suddenly "parties of interest" to the government tell their stories.A young woman in Buenos Aires watches bitterly as her family dissolves in betrayal
and illness, but chooses to seek a new understanding of compassion rather than revenge.
A carpenter traveling in India changes his life when he explodes in an act of violence
out of proportion to its cause. The beginning of the end of a man's lifelong search
for coherence is sparked by a Montana grizzly. A man blinded in the war in Vietnam
wrestles with the implications of his actions as a soldier-and with innocence, both
lost and regained.

Punctuated with haunting images by acclaimed artist Alan Magee,
Resistance is powerful fiction with enormous significance for our times.
