"According to Philip Nanavatti, fireworker and resident of Sarah Court, the best fireworks create, for the viewer, a “mushrooming imprint”: a vivid afterimage that keeps expanding once the viewer’s eyes have closed. His fireworks are described as linked lines of combustibles, packed together in tiny breakable chambers, an apt metaphor for the lives in this novel. Each character’s flame-out sets off another, and even once the novel ends, the reader comes away with the mushrooming imprint of all the other damage yet to be done."
