Narrated by Balram Halwai, "The White Tiger" is a tale of two Indias. Through Balram's eyes, we see the prostitutes 18!~~!!!158~ side-by-side with the worshippers; the ancient and modem cultures; the water buffalo and the white tiger. In Balram's India, religion doesn't create virtue, and money doesn't solve problems -- but you can get what you want out of life if you play your cards right. A complicated man, Balram Halwai is at once a servant, philosopher, entrepreneur and murderer. Over the course of seven nights, Balram tells the tale of how he came to be a success in life -- having nothing but his own wits to help him along. Born in the darkness of India, Balram is hired as a driver for his village's wealthiest man. From behind the wheel of their car, Balram becomes captivated by his new world. While his peers flip through the pages of gossip magazines, Balram closely watches his employers as they bribe foreign ministers and shop for prostitutes. As he chauffeur's his employers, Balram learns of the immense wealth and opportunity just beyond his reach. Closely watching his employers every move, Balram soon learns how to work the system, securing his place among Delhi's wealthy. Taking the form of seven letters to the Premier of the State Council of China, Balram details his rise from the darkness of India to his position as a wealthy "entrepreneur". Though somewhat predictable at times, Aravind Adiga's first novel is nonetheless a captivating tale of corruption, greed, and power. Winner of the Man Booker Prize in 2008, Adiga's novel is commendable in its tale of India's changing society. If you're looking for a great summer read, I reccomend "The White Tiger," by Aravind Adiga. AP Property Improvement for Those on a tight Budget......
