Darkly comic tale of ambition in modern India.

Aravind Adiga's narrative genius shines in this story, which follows a poor Bangalore driver's rise to the upper echelons of Indian business culture. With sharp wit and a touch of irreverence, Adiga tackles complex issues of poverty and corruption in a compelling and unique way, making The White Tiger a must-read for those interested in contemporary Indian literature and the darker side of ambition.

Description

Balram Halwai is a complicated man. Servant. Philosopher. Entrepreneur. Murderer. Over the course of seven nights, Balram tells us the story of how he came to be a success in life—having nothing but his own wits to help him along. And with a charisma as undeniable as it is unexpected, Balram teaches us that religion creates virtue, and money doesn't solve every problem—but decency can still be found in a corrupt world, and you can get what you want out of life if you eavesdrop on the right conversations. Amoral, irreverent, deeply endearing, and utterly contemporary, this novel is an international sensation—and a startling, provocative debut.
