Krátky popis
Balram Halwai is the White Tiger - the smartest boy in his village.
His family is too poor for him to afford for him to finish school
and he has to work in a teashop, breaking coals and wiping tables.
But Balram gets his break when a rich man hires him as a chauffeur,
and takes him to live in Delhi. The city is a revelation. As he
drives his master to shopping malls and call centres, Balram
becomes increasingly aware of immense wealth and opportunity all
around him, while knowing that he will never be able to gain access
to that world. As Balram broods over his situation, he realizes
that there is only one way he can become part of this glamorous new
India - by murdering his master.",The White Tiger", presents a raw
and unromanticised India, both thrilling and shocking - from the
desperate, almost lawless villages along the Ganges, to the booming
Wild South of Bangalore and its technology and outsourcing centres.
The first-person confession of a murderer, ",The White Tiger", is
as compelling for its subject matter as for the voice of its
narrator - amoral, cynical, unrepentant, yet deeply endearing.
