Chiara is working on a film about an incident in Balangiga, Samar, in 1901, when Filipino revolutionaries attacked an American garrison, and in retaliation, American soldiers created "a howling wilderness" of the surrounding countryside. Magsalin reads Chiara's film script and writes her own version. Insurrecto contains within its dramatic action two rival scripts from the filmmaker and the translator - one about a white photographer, the other about a Filipino schoolteacher.

Great story, cringe performance

I really enjoyed listening to this book. As many others have noted, the print version is easier to follow since the timeline isn't linear. The plot is still understandable on the audio version though. What killed the vibe for me was Eyre's pronunciation of Filipino words. As a Filipino myself, it was really difficult to hear her repeatedly butcher my language. Perhaps Audible should better vet their readers.
