The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga

The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga

WINNER OF THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE 2008 '[An] extraordinary and brilliant first novel... Adiga is a real writer - that is to say, someone who forges an original voice and vision.' Sunday Times

[A] blazingly savage and brilliant first novel.. Not a single detail in this novel rings false or feels confected. The White Tiger is an excoriating piece of work, stripping away the veneer of 'India Rising'... That it also manages to be suffused with mordant wit, modulating to clear-eyed pathos, means Adiga is going places as a writer. -- Neel Mukherjee * Sunday Telegraph *
Extraordinary and brilliant... Adiga is a real writer - that is to say, someone who forges an original voice and vision... The voice of Halwai - witty, pithy, ultimately psychopathic...[is] remarkable. -- Adam Lively * Sunday Times *
