White tiger

I can understand why people didn't like White Tiger. Why there was so much of criticism, you know the lieks of "this is meant for western audience" "he is selling it to the world" and such crap.

But I loved the book. It takes gumption to look into the mirror and take account of reality as it exists.

I can relate to the world of Balram, I can see his dilemmas can feel his pain and his eventual breakdown to freedom.

Only V S Naipul can be more scathing of the "Indianness" that surrounds us.

Must read I must say.
