A review by grubnubble
The White Tiger, by Aravind Adiga

2.0

I heard this was supposed to be a comedy but unfortunately it just came off as annoying. It’s written as a series of letters to some politician, which is a format I struggle with. It’s boring. I don’t like the writing style. The narrator has a cheeky way of saying things. Many of his sentences begin with “You see -“ or “Now,” which I think is supposed to be conversational, but again it’s something I find annoying.

I liked that it exposes the deep rage of the poor toward their exploiters, and there are some nice descriptive passages about being existential in a large city.
