A Fine Balance, Rohinton Mistryâs stunning internationally acclaimed bestseller, is set in mid-1970s India. It tells the story of four unlikely people whose lives come together during a time of political turmoil soon after the government declares a âState of Internal Emergency.â Through days of bleakness and hope, their circumstances â and their fates â become inextricably linked in ways no one could have foreseen. Mistryâs prose is alive with enduring images and a cast of unforgettable characters. Written with compassion, humour, and insight, A Fine Balance is a vivid, richly textured, and powerful novel written by one of the most gifted writers of our time.
