The White Tiger

In a letter written to Mr Jiabao, Adiga seemed reporting him the stark reality that he sees in our society through his investigative eyes. Written in a story mode, he has actually done to unravel the mysteries which are otherwise hidden. In the guise of an absorbing story told lucidly, he has successfully hammered home the idea of real and hidden India. To me, perhaps this is one of the most important reasons for which Arvind Adiga has been awarded the Booker Prize. He is also a master narrative because, as already said, the language he has used is simple and easy-to-understand (for an ordinary reader, like me). In bringing out to brightness what he calls 'the Darkness', never seemed like overshooting the sight. Although I am only half way through it, I am quite sure that he has made a sense, he means what he does. Some may disagree about the arguments (I consider them as facts; 'reality in its potentiality'), but I believe that the grass root situation is no different.

Yes, "we are in the coop Mr Jiabao", we are in the coop!

So, Three Cheers to Mr Adiga: one to him, one to his award and one for the most powerful letter he has written.
