THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER A SARAH JESSICA PARKER BOOK OF THE YEAR Four generations. Three sisters. One impossible choice. Tricked aboard a boat to East Africa, Pirbhai is only thirteen when he is forced by the British into labouring on the railway. Under sweltering heat, hungry and frightened, he commits a terrible act just to survive. He will never tell a soul, even when he meets Sonal, a fierce, loving woman with whom he starts a family in Uganda, in hope of a better life. But their granddaughters come of age in a divided nation. Finally forced to flee, the family scatters across the world. They take with them a steel pot, a handful of photos, and a secret – that one day, will help them find each other again. A History of Burning is a gorgeous family portrait of love, survival, inheritance - and the eternal search for home. One family's search for a better life, for fans of Half of a Yellow Sun, Homegoing and Pachinko 'A remarkable debut . . . haunting, symphonic' New York Times 'Vast and intricate, alight with love and contained fury . . . A book I want to press into readers' hands and discuss for hours' Megha Majumdar, author of A BURNING Shortlisted for the Carol Shields Prize for Fiction and the Amazon Canada First Novel Award
