具体描述
Synopsis
Born in a village in heartland India, the son of a rickshaw puller, Balram is taken out of school by his family and put to work in a teashop. As he crushes coals and wipes tables, he nurses a dream of escape - of breaking away from the banks of Mother Ganga, into whose depths have seeped the remains of a hundred generations.
The White Tiger is a tale of two Indias. Balram’s journey from darkness of village life to the light of entrepreneurial success is utterly amoral, brilliantly irreverent, deeply endearing and altogether unforgettable.

两年前从美国飞回中国的飞机上看着玩的。突然发现它已经被翻译成中文了。随即引来一堆豆瓣上苦大仇深的评论。为什么印度好些好玩的小说和电影到了豆瓣上就都被弄得苦大仇深了？
