Their lives follow a roller-coaster of love and separation. Unpredictable and unusual happenings propel the two into a passionate relationship burdened by predicaments. They don't have much in common aside from battling their personal misfortunes amidst the deepening dictatorship in Communist Romania of the early 1970's, where people are reduced to equally repressed subjects, and the difference in education is what sets apart classes in an ostensibly classless system. In Pursuit of Balance, relates the intertwined stories of Norma Mann, a physician and widowed mother of two young children, and Tibor Rozsavolgyi, an auto-mechanic who is single. A strong voice rich with metaphors and symbolism sustain ideally this multi-layered story. Their joys and pains, successes and defeats, take the reader along the last three decades of the 20th century, and places and circumstances that the majority would never have a chance to personally behold.
