How is the story of tiger king a satire in the political order of today?
Answers
The main purpose of the story Tiger King is to highlight the satire on the people of power i.e. today’s political order.
The king was foretold that he would be killed by hundredth tiger.
So, he hunted 100 tigers down.
But the irony is that the Tiger King was killed by a hundredth wooden tiger instead of any real tiger.
The ending of the story "The Tiger King" makes its readers acquitted with the moral of the story. In the end, all the pride and presence of power also do not help the King in escaping death. Another thing which gets highlighted is that death is inevitable. Death has to come one day. There is no power in the world which can help any person to escape the evils of death. The King wanted to show his powers over the inevitable death.
