"Incendiary"

by Chris Cleave
Translated by Reiko Sosa

One fine spring afternoon, a suicide bombing occurred at a soccer stadium in London, killing many people. My husband and four-year-old son were also found among the gruesome bodies. In my distress, I began to write a letter to the mastermind, Osama bin Laden, expressing my frustration. Eventually, through my interactions with a sarcastic reporter and a pessimistic police inspector, I began to recover from the grief of my loss, but one day I learned the shocking truth - a heartbreaking debut novel that won the Somerset Maugham Award.
