Oprah picks receptive author
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Oprah Winfrey has made her first book club pick since her ill-fated selection of Jonathan Franzen's The Corrections. And she is positive that the latest writer, Rohinton Mistry, is happy about the news.
"You know I've had my author problems this month." Winfrey said on her TV show Friday in announcing that she had chosen Mistry's A Fine Balance, an award-winning novel published in 1996.
"So I said to this author when I called up, the first thing I said was, 'Do you want it? Do you want to come to dinner? Do you want the label on your book?' And he said, 'Yes, very much, very much.'"
In a telephone interview from his home in Toronto, Mistry said he was "surprised and delighted" to learn Winfrey had
chosen his novel, although he acknowledged that he did not watch her show and had not thought much about her club.
"I write and I have no time for daytime television, but I am familiar with her and with her show," said Mistry, 49, a native of Bombay who emigrated to Canada in 1975.
"To be quite honest, I know very little about her book club and her book club picks. Until she picked this book I did not how the book club functioned."
Since making her first selection, five years ago, Winfrey has been on a crusade to get more people reading and talking about books. But September's announcement of The Corrections led to some very unexpected attention.
Confessing that he was "conflicted" about being picked, Franzen complained in interviews about having the book club logo on his novel and worried about his place in the "high-art literary tradition." Winfrey responded by canceling the dinner she traditionally throws for her chosen author, and he was labeled "an elitist" by a few writers.
Still, about 900,000 copies of his novel are in print, thanks largely to Winfrey.
Winfrey selected the paperback edition of A Fine Balance, published by Vintage Books, which plans a new printing of 700,000 copies. Before Friday's announcement, just under 65,000 paperback copies were in print.
A Fine Balance is set in India in the 1970s, during the state of emergency imposed by then-Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. It centers on four strangers forced to share one small apartment.
