    Peasant resistance illustrating subtle acts of defiance.

  • Who is this book for?

    This book offers a profound look at how peasants resist oppression through everyday acts rather than dramatic upheavals. It’s fascinating to see resistance as a nuanced, ongoing process that often goes unnoticed, yet is incredibly effective in challenging power structures. If you’re interested in social justice and the quiet power of ordinary people, this is a compelling read.
