ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng unfolds in the seemingly perfect community of Shaker Heights, Ohio, where the Richardson family's ordered lives are disrupted by the arrival of enigmatic artist Mia Warren and her daughter Pearl. The town is soon consumed by the emotional and legal battle surrounding the adoption of a Chinese-American baby, Mirabelle McCullough, which sharply divides the community. As Mrs. Richardson becomes increasingly suspicious of Mia's past and her connection to the custody case, she embarks on an investigation that unearths long-held secrets. The novel delves into themes of motherhood, class, race, and the complexities of identity within a meticulously planned suburban landscape.
