«The White Tiger» is the literary novel by Aravind Adiga published in paperback (321 pages, in English).
Balram Halwai, born in a rural village in India, narrates over seven nights how he went from being a rich man's driver to the master of his own destiny. With his wit, he observes the corruption of business and Indian society, and seeks a way out of a system he calls 'the rooster coop'. It is a mordant satire on ambition, poverty, and morality.
Winner of the 2008 Booker Prize, this novel was Aravind Adiga's debut and was originally published in 2008.
Intended for readers of contemporary fiction and Indian literature, as well as for book clubs interested in social satire.
