A Burning

I struggled with the pacing of this. It's sharp and loud and unapologetic about its political theming, but I found some chapters so much stronger than others that it slowed my progress. I thought Lovely and Jivan had stronget voices than PT Sir, and Lovely had movement in her chapters that the other two didn't.

Part of me feels that I would feel differently if I could better see the characters as metaphors for communities rather than standalone personas, but alas.
