Histoire
The Museum of Broken Promises is a beautiful, evocative love story and heartbreaking journey in to a long-buried past. Paris, today. The Museum of Broken Promises is a place of wonder and sadness, hope and loss. Every object in the museum has been donated - a cake tin, a wedding veil, a baby's shoe. And each represent a moment of grief or terrible betrayal. The museum is a place where people come to speak to the ghosts of the past and, sometimes, to lay them to rest.
Description
Meet Balram Halwal, the 'White Tiger': servant, philosopher, entrepreneur, murderer. Over the course of seven nights, by the scattered light of a preposterous chandelier, Balram tells his story....
Born in a village in the dark heart of India, the son of a rickshaw puller, Balram is taken out of school by his family and put to work in a tea shop. As he crushes coal and wipes tables, he nurses a dream of escape, of breaking away from the banks of Mother Ganga, into whose murky depths have seeped the remains of a hundred generations.
His big chance comes when a rich village landlord hires him as a chauffeur for his son, his daughter-in-law, and their two Pomeranian dogs. From behind the wheel of a Honda, Balram first sees Delhi.
.The city is a revelation. Amid the cockroaches and call centres, the 36,000,004 gods, the slums, the shopping malls and the crippling traffic jams, Balram's reeducation begins. Caught between his instinct to be a loyal son and servant and his desire to better himself, he learns of a new morality at the heart of a new India.
As the other servants flick through the pages of Murder Weekly, Balram begins to see how the tiger might escape his cage. For surely any successful man must spill a little blood on his way to the top.
The White Tiger is a tale of two Indias. Balram's journey from the darkness of village life to the light of entrepreneurial success is utterly amoral, brilliantly irreverent, deeply endearing and altogether unforgettable.

Reminds me of all of Delhi's facettes
it sheds light on how people are treated in india in a very smart and cheeky manner, allowing this one character to escape his fate, without justifying his means. and still you feel empathy and range at the same time towards this person. loved it.

What does the future hold for Adiga’s India?
Kerry Shale’s colourful narration brings even peripheral characters to life in Aravind Adiga’s Booker prize winner about the perpetual hopelessness of corruption in India. First published around 2007/8, it seems topical in my August 2020 book club as Lebanon crumbles under the weight of corruption.
Our Indian book clubber tells us this rags-to-riches tale is a fair reflection of Indian society and that young educated Indians don’t want to live in that corrupt society or become politicians themselves in order to make a change. There’s a phrase she uses, which translates: “Why muddy your hands when you’re cleaning your house.”
If decent successful Indians continue to relocate to countries they can trust, eventually what will remain? Only the poor, the corrupt and the coerced?

I finally got a good picture of contemporary India
This book was a revelation to me. I asked an Indian friend of mine to recommend a book about India that would illustrate how the caste system is perceived today. This book did the job brilliantly. It is entertaining, ironic, and full of information. I started with the audiobook (the narration is excellent - I love the accent!) and soon after I bought the paper book because I wanted to underline so many things! I would highly uggest it, even to high school students!!! Thank you Aravind Adiga and Kerry Shale!!!

Great story - entertaining, funny and wise at the same time. As many insights about the Indian society than you would get of any documentary. And Kerry Shale as a narrator is just gorgeous! So make sure that you listen to the English version. It‘s absolutely worth it.
