Summary: The White Tiger (Aravind Adiga)
"The White Tiger" is a novel written by Indian author Aravind Adiga. It was published in 2008 and went on to win the Man Booker Prize, one of the most prestigious literary awards in the world. The novel is a work of fiction, but it is set in India and offers a darkly satirical and critical look at various aspects of Indian society, including class, caste, and corruption.
The story is narrated by the main character, Balram Halwai, who comes from a poor rural background and manages to rise above his circumstances by becoming a chauffeur for a wealthy Indian family. Through Balram's perspective, the novel explores the stark divide between the rich and the poor in India, as well as the corruption and exploitation that exist within the country's social and economic systems.
Balram's journey from a servant to an entrepreneur is marked by his ambition and cunning, which ultimately lead him to commit a shocking crime. The novel raises questions about the price of success and the moral compromises individuals are willing to make in pursuit of a better life.
"The White Tiger" has been praised for its sharp social commentary, compelling narrative, and complex protagonist. It offers a thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of modern India and the choices people make in the face of systemic inequality and injustice.
