HTML:<b>NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A READ WITH JENNA BOOK CLUB PICK! • A "gripping thriller with compassionate social commentary"  (<i>USA Today</i>) about three unforgettable characters who seek to rise<i>—</i>to the middle class, to political power, to fame in the movies<i>—</i>and find their lives entangled in the wake of a catastrophe in contemporary India.<br /></b><br /> Jivan is a Muslim girl from the slums, determined to move up in life, who is accused of executing a terrorist attack on a train because of a careless comment on Facebook. PT Sir is an opportunistic gym teacher who hitches his aspirations to a right-wing political party and finds that his own ascent becomes linked to Jivan's fall. Lovely<i>—</i>an irresistible outcast whose exuberant voice and dreams of glory fill the novel with warmth and hope and humor<i>—</i>has the alibi that can set Jivan free, but it will cost her everything she holds dear.<br /> Taut, symphonic, propulsive, and riveting from its opening lines, <i>A Burning</i> is an electrifying debut.
