ursulamonarch 's review for:
A Fine Balance
by Rohinton Mistry
I found this quite interesting, and all the comparisons to Dickens feel apt. I was engaged by the story and the plot even as I didn't quite understand individual characters; that may have been more my interpretation of the book. I was surprised that the book covered both, what seemed to me, melodrama, as well as great understatement.
I enjoyed considering what the "fine balance" of the title referred to, and being propelled by the plot. The evocative settings were interesting to read as well.
