A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry

5.0

So... I cried more times than I what to admit with this book.
The writing is absolutely seamless, pure genius. You get such a comprehensive background on the characters, in a non exhausting way, that makes you feel like you've known then forever, and they're your friends.
Not to get into book details, the emotion, decisions, and events, feel so real, due to the way the author gets into their head, in order to convey them to you.
Many times I lost track of time reading this, culminating in a very late night reading session to finish the book.
