評分拖拖拉拉,到瞭康提纔二刷完畢,和上次讀一樣我更感興趣主僕之間的張力,Balram謀殺的時候,鏡頭迴閃幼時和父親玩耍撫摸身體的情景,讓人有"弑父"的聯想。
評分印度的兩個世界,the darkness and the light.
評分I was looking for the key for years, but the door was always open.
評分這樣的故事纔是有重量的故事。簡單的故事,夾雜和暗含著各種對印度製度與現狀的思考。我不知道怎樣的纔是真實的印度,也不知道主角所作所為是對是錯。隻能當做小說看罷,消化這個故事的任務就交給以後的人生吧。
阿拉文德·阿迪加一九七四年齣生於印度海港城市馬德拉斯,後移居澳大利亞。畢業後曾任《時代周刊》駐印度通訊記者,並為《金融時報》、《獨立報》、《星期日泰晤士報》等英國媒體撰稿。現居孟買。《白老虎》是其處女作。
Balram Halwai is the White Tiger - the smartest boy in his village. His family is too poor for him to afford for him to finish school and he has to work in a teashop, breaking coals and wiping tables. But Balram gets his break when a rich man hires him as a chauffeur, and takes him to live in Delhi. The city is a revelation. As he drives his master to shopping malls and call centres, Balram becomes increasingly aware of immense wealth and opportunity all around him, while knowing that he will never be able to gain access to that world. As Balram broods over his situation, he realizes that there is only one way he can become part of this glamorous new India - by murdering his master."The White Tiger" presents a raw and unromanticised India, both thrilling and shocking - from the desperate, almost lawless villages along the Ganges, to the booming Wild South of Bangalore and its technology and outsourcing centres. The first-person confession of a murderer, "The White Tiger" is as compelling for its subject matter as for the voice of its narrator - amoral, cynical, unrepentant, yet deeply endearing.
《白老虎》是一本非常特别的小说,曾一度让我误以为是政治性的书信体作品,因为它的封面语为:一位印度企业家写给中国总理的信。结果读过之后,发现真乃大错特错,事实上这是一本诙谐幽默风趣的虚构小说,当然虚中也有实,而它的独到之处,恰恰就在于书信体的设定上。 ...
評分 評分“印度不会发生革命,这个国家的人民仍然会在等待,等待别处过来的一场战争来解放他们。革命绝不会发生,每个人都必须创建自己的圣城” 我想这些话用来描述中国目前的现状也很准确。或许中国真的不需要改变什么,我们这些年轻人正在接受着目前的现实,试图适应这个社会。的确...
評分抱着好奇的心开始看这本书,起初对印度北部农村的一些陋习感到好笑,渐渐地,心情变得沉重,透过小说表面戏虐 的描述,我看到的是鸡笼般桎梏人性的压抑,穷苦大众也好,富商也罢,抑或高科技产业的从业人员,无不是生活在鸡笼中,耗费生命和智慧的挣扎。正如小说中提及的人们到...
評分This is first book I ever read about India, which recommended by a financial theory professor. But I don't think he implies us to follow the strategy of Balram to become an "entrepreneur" by murdering his master, taking possession of his money which suppose...
