(0 comment)
Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are.

A Fine Balance
by
Rohinton Mistry

, January 01, 2010
I could have nominated any one of Rohinton Mistry's fine books. Each one is a treasure. His feelings for and about India are unlike anyone else I've ever read. He is unblinkingly honest and deeply enamoured of her simultaneously. His language is magnificent and I love his sense of humor. His characters are so finely drawn that years later I still find myself thinking of them and even missing them as if they were people I really knew. But it is his honestly about and love of India that I most appreciate.
