Hello readers !
Once again warmly welcome to my blog. This blog is part of my thinking activity task which is assigned by our professor Dr. Dilip barad sir. CLICK HERE to view more about this task.......
The White Tiger is the debut novel of Aravind Adiga, which brought him Man Booker Prize in 2008.
💠How far do you agree with the India represented in the novel The White Tiger?
In the novel, Adiga has portrayed both side of India like, India of darkness and India of light. The novel provides darkly humorous perspective of India's class struggle in globalised world as told through a restrospective narration frome Balram Halwai. Although Indian economy has grown steadily over the last two decades, its growth has been uneven when comparing different social groups, economic groups, geographic regions, rural and urban areas.The representation of India is quite similar to what real India is. But yes we can't deny the development of India too. But there are places where still situations is something horrible. Even people are unable to get daily food, basic education, some social problems like dowry, rituals which ruins life of an individuals. Correspondingly corruption prevails everywhere in India, disgraceful situation of a police system and much more.
💠Do you believe that Balram's story is the archetype of all stories of 'rags to riches' ?
Yes, it seems that this book stands in the category of self help book. In real life we find so many entrepreneurs who has lived some horrible life then they reached at this height. While we look this archetype, Balram's story also get fits in the category of rags to riches. As from his mediocre childhood he reaches to richness.
