A Fine Balance: Rohinton Mistry 3

For some reason, I am reading this book with a sense of dread. It's like I am waiting for something horrible to happen... for human nature to fail in the light of what happens in the situations he's described.

I've always been a believer in the inherent goodness of human nature. That's why I am really hoping that it will shine through, despite the depths of despair that the situations bring. For whatever he has described are very real conditions of human living.

Mistry's built this sense of tension well. And I can't help but keep reading.

So here I go again to read, thinking, "que sera sera".
