The White Tiger

While this book's story is historically and socially interesting, I didn't think it was well written at all. The excessive levity of the tone fails in the attempt of sophisticated humor and instead removes complexity and empathy from the characters. I feel like the author decided to use a formula that could have worked for a few pages/chapters and instead he stuck with it for the entire book making the book itself feel a little fake and an immature exercise of style. I did enjoy learning more about Indian society, so I powered through it, but strictly in terms of book quality, it was not worth finishing reading it.
