Rohinton Mistry, an Indian-born writer living in Canada, grapples with a dual identity, maintaining a connection to his homeland in his writing despite his geographical distance. His literary portfolio comprises three novels Such a Long Journey, A Fine Balance, and Family Matters, Tales from Firozsha Baag, a collection of short stories. A Fine Balance delves into societal inequities that afflict the majority, with Mistry notably delineating his concern for the Parsi community distinct from his worry for other Indian groups. The central focus of the work revolves around the breakdown of human relationships. The discrimination and imbalance portrayed within the narrative arise from the mistreatment of untouchables and Dalits by the high-caste villagers, viewing them as subhuman. The story unfolds against the backdrop of an impersonal, fearful metropolis, with characters grappling with dislocation, loneliness, and estrangement.
