RED RISING: A Novel

BEHIND THE BEAUTIFUL FOREVERS

(Book I of the Red Rising Trilogy)

Life, Death, and Hope in a Mumbai Undercity

by PIERCE BROWN

by KATHERINE BOO

Red Rising is the story of a society in a desolate future, driven by class conflict and shaken by the tremors of an impending revolution. But more than that, it’s the story of Darrow—a secret revolutionary who is inspired not only by a longing for social justice, but also by lost love.

“A beautiful account, told through real-life stories, of the sorrows and joys, the anxieties and stamina, in the lives of the precarious and powerless in urban India whom a booming country has failed to absorb and integrate. A brilliant book that simultaneously informs, agitates, angers, inspires, and instigates.”
