Professional Reviews
Professional Reviews <b><i>Economist</i>:</b> "A FINE BALANCE moves from villages to cities, and returns the reader, a little wiser and a good deal sadder, to the villages again at the end....The style is detached, humorous, and symbolic. But it is hard to take comfort in Mr Mistry's magnificent novel, despite its generosity: it is too true."

First Line
Publisher's Note The morning express bloated with passengers slowed to a crawl, then lurched forward suddenly, as though to resume full speed. The train's brief deception jolted its riders. The bulge of humans hanging out of the doorway distended perilously, like a soap bubble at its limit.
