    In The White Tiger, Aravind Adiga portrays a gut-wrenching, vivid display of a country that is defined by the oppression of the proletariat by both the super-structure and bourgeoisie. India is a relatively new “free” country, and can be defined by three periods: the early caste/pre-colonization, the British rule/colonization, and Western globalization/post-colonization. During the last period, an economy based in capitalism grew from the ashes of the previous British colonization where a vacuum for power was left after India received freedom from their previous oppressors. However, a transition into running their own country saw a government that only cared about making the rich, richer put into place, therefore further suppressing the proletariat,…

    Life of Pi, written by Yann Martel in 2001 displays how reality and faith shape each other and how each person has their own reality. While forming a central idea of how faith and belief can shape one's reality, Martel's crafting and organisation of the book leads readers to understand that Pi uses metaphorical animals representing him and other passengers on the lifeboat. Through these symbolic animals Pi relays his story while simultaneously buffering himself from the reality of the events occurring in the 227 days he was lost at sea. Through his construction and organisation of the novel Martel shows that the animals are metaphorical. One example is the clerical error in naming Richard Parker, this is similar to choosing the name…

    Imagine being lost in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with a tiger that’s starving of hunger and having to figure out a way not to get eaten by it. Or having to train a really dangerous tiger knowing that it might attack because it’s hungry. Yann Martel’s novel, Life of Pi, describes one full story of a kid who’s lost in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with a tiger, and a kid whose family passed away when they were on a boat on their way to Canada for better job opportunities. The story with animals is more believable because it talks about Richard Parker eating a hyena and a French castaway, Pi eating sea animals, and Pi having to train Richard Parker. Richard Parker eats a hyena and a French castaway in the boat because he hadn’t eaten in a really long time since the last time Pi got him something to eat, he also ate them because he was dying of hunger.…
