Resistance, the historical fiction novel by Jennifer A. Nielsen, is a story telling the life on Jewish courier, Chaya Lindner, as she fights against the oppression of the Nazis. Her two siblings disappear, one by train and one by not coming in before night. She does various tasks for Akiva, the resistance cell she is a part of, including stealing supplies from a train and delivering a baby to a church. Her travels end at Warsaw, where she takes part in a resistance firefight alongside her rediscovered sibling. The story ends with her having left Warsaw through some sewers, along with others, promising that her friend Ester's sacrifice will not have been in vain.
Plot
[edit]As Chaya Linder is held up, she thinks about how it would take two minutes for the guard inspecting her, presumably a SS soldier, to notice she was Jewish. She remarks about how she learned not to hide items in her sleeves, and that she only had to mes up once to get caught. She also remarks on how she once thought younger officers were easier to get through, because of naïveness, but also says that the younger soldiers were more ambitious.
