The White Tiger

I inhaled this book standing in line with nowhere to go and nothing to do, so my attention was fully in the story. I found the voice very authentic and the character present. He drives the story with his curiosity and willingness to learn. An amazing storyteller. I could easily believe this story as if it was true. 𝙎𝙚𝙚, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙤𝙤𝙧 𝙙𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙞𝙧 𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙚𝙣𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝙩𝙤 𝙚𝙖𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙝. 𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙙𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙧𝙞𝙘𝙝 𝙙𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢 𝙤𝙛?? 𝙇𝙤𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙬𝙚𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙤𝙤𝙧. It’s definitely a social commentary on the caste system still very present in many parts of the world. And I love how we follow Balram from a submissive worker who when scorned grows cynical and conniving. He always had it in him though, you can tell that from the beginning as he does everything to reach his goals. Funny, smart, and brutal. I loved it. (Also, watch the movie, they actually did a great job with that one too!)
