A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry
A Fine Balance

tayyabajkhan, March 26, 2008

I was recommended to read this book by a total stranger I encountered in a public library. The American lady said to me, 'If you enjoy literature then you've got to read "A Fine Balance". I wish I could thank the lady for helping me select one of the greatest book I've ever read in a long time. I not only enjoyed the book, I loved it, and literally cried and laughed with the characters, for the fact that these characters were not imaginary, but they exist in a real world, maybe with different names.
