People that like to keep themselves informed might be knowing that the Author of this book got the prestigious Booker Prize for the book some time from now.
The Award is sincerely justified.Aravinda Adiga,a correspondent of Time magazine have jabbed an acute sarcasm on every bit and byte of the Indian soil.By no dimension,the author seems to be naive or new in this world of words.
The Book is actually partitioned into six letters which ,the cynosure of the book-Balram sends to Mr Jiabao from China,who is scheduled on a state visit in the ensuing days.He starts from his village Laxmangarh and streams to Delhi,as a driver to his ex-boss Mr.Ashok who is in coal business.The pages continue to present the plight of city life until one day,Balram orchestrates a way to get out of the rooster cage by murdering and garrotting his master and taking his money to a new city called Bangalore.He discovers his entreprenuer DNA in the city and starts a Company-White Tiger Drivers,which is dexterous in conveying outsourcing beings from their home to the call center firm and vice-versa.He replenishes himself from Darkness to Light in this city.
The Book tries to link an acute nexus between people and animals(for example,He calls himself a white tiger,his master a lamb).
This Page-turner offers a complete compelling and unadorned image of the country right from the bottom of the pyramid and is a assidiously written dark humor.
Aravinda Adiga is fun to read and you will find yourself gripped into the pages once you get off the ground !
