Question

For which novel did Indian novelist Aravind Adiga win the prestigious Man Booker Prize?

• A. The Inheritance of Loss
• B. The White Tiger
• C. Midnight's Children
• D. The God of Small Things

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To determine the novel for which Aravind Adiga won the prestigious Man Booker Prize, let's examine the correct answer and other options:

1. The White Tiger: Aravind Adiga won the Man Booker Prize in 2008 for this novel. It is a debut novel and was highly acclaimed for its portrayal of India's class struggle. Therefore, this is the correct answer.
2. The Inheritance of Loss: This novel, written by Kiran Desai, won the Man Booker Prize in 2006, not by Aravind Adiga.
3. Midnight's Children: Authored by Salman Rushdie, this book won the Man Booker Prize in 1981. It is another Man Booker-winning novel, but it does not relate to Aravind Adiga.
4. The God of Small Things: This novel was written by Arundhati Roy and won the Man Booker Prize in 1997. Again, this does not relate to Aravind Adiga.

From the options, it is clear that Aravind Adiga's The White Tiger is the novel for which he won the Man Booker Prize. It reflects themes of economic disparity and social stratification through a gripping narrative and unique perspective.
