Book Review - The White Tiger

A Total Movie Material!

The book is about a single character named Balram Halwai who starts off as a tea seller at a very tender age,then as a driver as he grows up and then as an entrepreneur in the end. This whole journey is intriguing to read.

There are details and then there are kind of details mentioned by Aravind. Each and every detail is mentioned with perfection helping us to visualize the scene exactly. The plot,characters and theme portrays true Indian culture, its mentality and our mindset. The story doesn't has a pace of a crazy roller coaster but that of a car accelerating to the mountain top. It surprises us in between with crazy turns. ;)

Not to forget there are some beautiful metaphors used in the book and philosophy of the Roster Coop which is an explanation of how Indians are! Well if you're really curious now to know what it is. Ill tell you in short as a small story.

People from all across the world were asked to bring a animal with them. Some bought birds in a cage. Some bought fishes in a pot. Some bought dogs tied to their hands with the rope but the Indian fellow had bought a jar full of cockroaches. Someone asked why have you not put a cover to the jar,wont they scatter? The Indian laughed and asked the men to carefully observe him. He picked up a cockroach and placed it a little near to the narrow opening of the jar. The cockroach was trying to escape from there then but some cockroaches from beneath went up near him and tried to touch him,some flew and harassed him. The cockroach eventually gave up and took a fall in the jar.
True ain't it?

The White Tiger is surely a Worth Read but I was disappointed as I had expected more since it is a Pulitzer Winner! 
I would rate it as 7/10 :)
To end it I am adding a quote which caught me. I pictured it with the Textgram app.
