Curious what the book is about? Check out the following blurb provided by the publisher:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>After a fiery attack on a train leaves 104 people dead, the fates of three people become inextricably entangled. Jivan, a bright, striving woman from the slums looking for a way out of poverty, is wrongly accused of planning the attack because of a careless comment on Facebook. PT Sir, a slippery gym teacher from Jivan&#8217;s former high school, has hitched his aspirations to a rising right wing party, and his own ascent becomes increasingly linked to Jivan&#8217;s fall. Lovely, a spirited, impoverished, relentlessly optimistic hjira, who harbors dreams of becoming a Bollywood star, can provide the alibi that would set Jivan free&#8211;but her appearance in court will have unexpected consequences that will change the course of all of their lives. A novel about fate, power, opportunity, and class; about innocence and guilt, betrayal and love, and the corrosive media cycle that manufactures falsehoods masquerading as truths&#8211;A Burning is a debut novel of exceptional power and urgency, haunting and beautiful, brutal, vibrant, impossible to forget.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This book is also available in the following format:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/rivershare.polarislibrary.com\/search\/title.aspx?ctx=14.1033.0.0.1&amp;pos=1&amp;cn=1344460\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Overdrive eBook<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you joined our Best Sellers Club yet?
