A Tiger for Malgudi by R K Narayan

A venerable tiger looks back over his life from cubhood and early days roaming wild in the jungle. Trapped into a miserable circus career he is then sold into films (co-starring with a Tarzan) until, finding the human world too brutish and bewildering, he makes a dramatic bid for freedom.

Born and educated in India, R.K.Narayan (1906-2001) wrote fourteen novels, numerous short stories and essays, a biography, and three retold myths. His writing was frequently compared to those of Dickens, Chekhov, Faulkner, and Flannery O'Connor, among others, and was championed by Graham Greene, who became a personal friend.
