ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“A Spark of Light” by Jodi Picoult is a compelling novel set around a tense hostage situation at the last abortion clinic in Mississippi. The story unfolds through a series of interconnected characters, including the hostages, the hostage-taker, and the negotiator, each struggling with deeply personal issues tied to the themes of reproductive rights, morality, and grief. Using reverse chronological storytelling, Picoult explores the emotional and ethical complexities surrounding the issue of abortion, highlighting the intersection of personal choice and political beliefs. The novel delves into empathy, human connection, and the gray areas of right and wrong.
