[ SOLD OUT ] OFFUTT, S., Blood Entanglements. Evangelicals and Gangs in El Salvador. Oxford University Press, 2023. 248p. Hardback. In El Salvador, the country with highest murder rate on the planet, criminal gangs and evangelicals, mostly pentecostals, are the two most influential groups in towns and cities across the violence-plagued nation. This book, on the complex relations between the MS-13 and 18th Street gangs on one hand and evangelical communities on the other, is the most nuanced and insightful study to date on the topic. It belongs on the top shelf of readers interested in global Christianity, gang violence, and Latin American studies. R. Andrew Chesnut, author of Devoted to Death: Santa Muerte, the Skeleton Saint (Publisher's information). (New) (Printed on Demand) (approx. delivery time: undeliverable) ISBN: 9780197587300
