Standard'The anti-Slumdog Millionaire' Hollywood Reporter___________Here's a strange fact: murder a man, and you feel responsible for his life - possessive, even. You know more about him than his father and mother; they knew his foetus, but you know his corpse.   Meet Balram Halwai, the 'White Tiger': servant, philosopher, entrepreneur... murderer. Balram was born in a backwater village on the River Ganges, the son of a rickshaw-puller. He works in a teashop, crushing coal and wiping tables, but nurses a dream of escape. When he learns that a rich village landlord needs a chauffeur, he takes his opportunity, and is soon on his way to Delhi at the wheel of a Honda. Amid cockroaches, call-centres, thirty-six-million gods, slums, shopping malls, and crippling traffic jams, Balram comes to see how the Tiger might slip the bars of his cage.;  336 pages; Published: 03\/12\/2020\u003cdiv class=\"goodreadr\" data-isbn=\"9781838953942\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42216674001075,"sku":"9781838953942","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0024\/6874\/1219\/products\/9781838953942.jpg?v=1669911231","url":"https:\/\/www.books2door.com\/products\/9781838953942","provider":"Books2Door","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
