Makale Özeti:
|
Indian literature has succeeded in creating a space of its own among the world
literatures. A number of literary works produced in India, especially after
independence have highlighted the issues of Indian society at large. The White Tiger
by Aravind Adiga, an Indian-Australian journalist and writer is one such book. It
received the Man Booker Prize 2008. The White Tiger is a supremely candid novel
representing the 'dark' aspects of Indian society. It's a rags to riches story of the
narrator, Balram Halwai, who is born in an impoverished family and rises to be a
successful entrepreneur by sheer wit and cunning. He brings to limelight some of
the major issues and challanges that the Indian society faces, viz. corruption, the
caste divide, poverty(unequivocal economic division) etc. He is initially a victim and
observer of corruption and later becomes one among the corrupt. Balram has got a
strong urge to succeed in life and this strong yearning gives him an edge above
others and a first hand experience of the snare that corruption has woven on
society. Fraudulance and deceit have become such an integral part of both the
village and city life that the narrator cannot remain unaffected and he headlong
plunges into it.
