Reviews
"""Steeped in light and shadow, Blood and Ink tells the passionate story of the Jesuit Martyrs of El Salvador. Sweeping in its scope, unsettling in its political and historical implications, and profound in its theological depth, this modern-day parable changes those who encounter it. Lassalle-Klein provides us with a masterful analysis of these martyrs and a compelling interpretation of why they continue to matter."" --Kevin F. Burke, S.J., Jesuit School of Theology of Santa Clara University ""In this compelling work of historical and theological scholarship, Lassalle-Klein demonstrates how the ground-breaking ideas of figures like Igancio Ellacuria and Jon Sobrino cannot be understood apart from the community which helped nurture them intellectually and spiritually. The blood of the UCA martyrs reminds us that, when rooted in Christ's preferential option for the poor, ideas will indeed have consequences."" --Roberto S. Goizueta, Boston College"
