Book Summary

Such a Long Journey by Rohinton Mistry is a richly layered novel set in Bombay (now Mumbai) in 1971, during a time of political upheaval and personal turmoil. The story follows Gustad Noble, a middle-aged bank clerk and devoted family man whose life begins to unravel as he becomes entangled in a government conspiracy, navigates strained family relationships, and confronts the rapid changes in his once orderly world. As Gustad struggles with his disillusionment, illness in the family, and a complex request from an old friend now in military intelligence, the novel explores themes of loyalty, identity, political corruption, and the resilience of the human spirit. With vivid descriptions and deeply drawn characters, Mistry paints a poignant portrait of everyday life in India, where the personal and political collide in unexpected ways.
