Abstract :
Indian author Aravind Adiga’s maiden work of fiction The White Tiger that won him not only innumerable readers but also the Booker Prize in 2008 is “The Autobiography of a Half-Baked Indian”1.It contains a gradually evolving, haphazardly-educated, freedom-loving, intelligent, pragmatic, self-made, though insecure underdog’s anger and despair-laden vision of sharply-contrasted, twenty-first century Indias and Indians expressed through a number of images2, mostly of animals, insects and some other things. The present article seeks to analyze the diverse images and explain their roles and importance in the overall scheme of the novel.
