Balram Halway. He grew up as a poor boy with barley no good possibilities and opportunities in the"Darkness" of India and became a successful entrepreneur, as he describes himself. I haven't really figured out this young man yet, but one thing is for sure; he doesn't give up very easily.
I know much about his background, his family and his life but I still feel like I don't know him. I think the reason to this is that the author of the book doesn't describe Balrams' feeling much. We know where he grew up and what he has done in his life but what we don't know is who he really is. The author doesn't write about friends Balram has had or what he really thinks and feels in different situations.
Balram is a killer, he killed his family and his master but as it seems he didn't dislike them so it is still a mystery why he would kill them. Maybe the reason is that it was the only way he could go from the Darkness to the Light.
