Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The book sticks closely to the true historical events, focusing on the harrowing survival story without shoehorning identity politics or modern ideological themes. Characters are presented as complex human beings first rather than as ideological symbols.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values around duty, bravery, and faith are depicted with respect. There isn't any ham-fisted attempt to undermine cultural or religious norms, instead, the book contextualizes its characters' actions within their era.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative worldviews and the complexities of cultural encounters are explored thoughtfully rather than dismissed or mocked. No sign of the typical 'everyone agrees on modern morals' approach you see in more recent works.
