"One reason why ‘The White Tiger’ has won the booker prize is, we believe, the real depiction of the struggles of the poor, the oppressed class and their miserable lives.

This retrospective narration if combined with introspective aspects would show the way to reconciliation and resolution..." write Mariyosh & Angeline in this Book Review on the Bihar-Bangalore connection book, ‘Booker Prize Winner ‘The White Tiger’.
