The White Tiger Book Review by Abiiinabu, The best book to start reading? 

• The White Tiger: Author:-  

    Arvind Adiga is an Indian author and a Men Booker Prize holder for the same book in 2008. 

    The White Tiger was a New York Times bestseller book for a long time.

• The White Tiger: Summary:-

    The White Tiger was a story of Balram Halwai. His ancestors were Halwai the sweet makers, but Balram's family was very poor. his father was an auto-rickshaw driver. they all lived in a village named Laxmangarh, which s full of corrupt politicians and landlords. it seems all the villagers are okay with this situation except Balram. Balram wants to be rich and his father's death puts on his fire more. Balram's grandmother Kusum wants Balram to get married but Balram refuses and ran away to Delhi. in Delhi, he learned Driving, and fortunately, he gets a job at one of his village's landlord's son Mr. Ashok's driver. Balram can't save his father from TB so he decides to be richer and richer that no one can ignore him. On his journey to being rich Balram gets close to his master Mr. Ashok. Mr. Ashok seems to be a humble person in our story. Everything goes to the flow but suddenly one day, Balam brutally murdered Mr. Ashok.
    Why Balram murdered Mr. Ashok? This is answered beautifully, scientifically, and interestingly in this book. 

• The White Tiger: Overview:- 

    Although the nature of this book is largely strategical. I enjoyed the fast pace and the suspense but there is a major subplot to kill Mr. Ashok that was quite thrilling for me. The characters are good enough to keep you in the storyline. I read it in two sittings, which is in itself a recommendation for the story.

• The White Tiger: What could have been better:-

    At first, I was not convinced that I wanted to finish this story because I didn't understand the plot and writing style of the author. But after the first chapter, the story is beyond my mind. The culture is as disorienting as it is interesting; the characters have multiple names as Stork and others. All of which are used interchangeably; and the details of the futuristic technology confused me. 

• The White Tiger: Ahead of time?

    I counted three or four times, the main characters creating interpersonal relationships a couple of times with different people. A married man shares a night with his old friend or girlfriend. After that, a character goes for a Ukrainian beauty to full his desires. This book includes much warm and torture imagining scenes. 

There are many sex scenes or bad language in this story. There is some violence, with scenes involving arguments. 

• The White Tiger: What was done well:-

    The world-building is of a level that I honestly have rarely seen in any speculative fiction. Only Munshi Premchandra of Hindi Literature has brilliant details in his novels or stories. Arvind Adiga has the guts to talk about real Indian problems such as the Caste system, Racism, poverty, hypocrisy, and unhappy social realities. The world felt real. Not just so entertaining, that it was real or physically detailed that it seemed theoretically possible. No, this world was solid like physical reality and the characters and cultures were not simply the usual homogenous bunch, for all Stork, Mr. Ashok, Balram, and as well as we had subculture and conflicts amongst each other, and that culture adapted and evolved for the river in a very realistic way.

• The White Tiger: Quotes:-

• " I am not an original thinker but I am an original listener."

• " Only three nations have never let themselves be ruled by foreigners: China, Afghanistan, and Abyssinia. These are the only three nations I admire."

• " Four greatest poets of all time- Rumi, Iqbal, Mirza Ghalib, and a fourth fellow whose name I forget."

• " Entrepreneurs are like sponges- they absorb and grow."

• " The desire to be a servant had been bred into me; hammered into my skull, nail after nail, and poured into my blood, the way sewage and Industrial poison are poured into Mother Ganga."

• " The history of the world is the history of a ten thousand year war of brains between the rich and the poor."

• " There is honesty among thieves."
