Book Review |

| (by- Linda ) |
This compelling tale is based on a true story of tragedy - a performance at a theater was interrupted by a fire that ultimately claimed hundreds of lives. But it is not just a sobering account of historical events. It also explores the society of the time, characterized by the bitter legacy of slavery, racial injustice, and the intense struggle of black people to achieve freedom.
The book explores the Fire from four distinctive viewpoints. It delves into the unique experiences of each person, their decisions during the Fire, and the far-reaching consequences. It's a thought-provoking read that will elicit an emotional response as it explores the struggles of black individuals, how society views women, and complex moral themes.
