I just finished reading Janika Oza's A History of Burning (2023) and I am blown away. Her ability to write with depth in the space between the unsaid and understood is masterful. The novel sings in a song that's mournful and hopeful all at once. Never dog-earred so furiously!

Today is the dayyy! My debut novel SUNSHINE NAILS is officially out in the world! 🧵A thread…1/5

I’ve done a lot of reading this summer (and not much else). Just finished this masterpiece and did not want to part from the Indo-Ugandan family at the center of the novel. #AHistoryOfBurning Janika Oza Grand Central Pub

Four generations. Three sisters. One impossible choice. Janika Oza’s profoundly moving debut novel, A History of Burning (McClelland & Stewart), explores how one act of survival reverberates across generations of a family. Oza joins us at #VWF2023. writersfest.bc.ca/reading-list-2…

We spoke to Janika Oza, debut author of A HISTORY OF BURNING (Hachette Canada) for our New Canadian Writers series: "Writing is the way that I understand and process the world, the way I make sense of what’s happening in my life and around me." hubs.ly/Q020nC3-0

Navigating the present with one foot in the past, new works of fiction by Janika Oza, Amanda Peters and Katherena Vermette explore how the ripple effect of a choice, a moment, or a devastating incident transforms their characters’ lives. Learn more: buff.ly/45Q9jYR

A sweeping saga of displacement and disruption — but never dissolution — for 4 generations of an Indo-Ugandan family that spans almost 100 years. It sounds like an unwieldy read; it’s not. The writing invites and envelops. A remarkable debut from Janika Oza . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
