In The Tiger’s Claw by R.K. Narayan we have
In The Tiger’s Claw by R.K. Narayan we have the theme of reliability, fear, ego, pride and honesty. Taken from his Malgudi Days collection the story is narrated in the first person by an unnamed narrator and after reading the story the reader realises that the Talkative Man may not be a reliable source of information. Though he holds the narrator’s attention throughout the story it seems to be a case that he is taking credit for another man’s work. The three claws that the Talkative Man claims to have cut from the tiger may be part of a ritual that some of the forest tribes carry out. It is also noticeable that throughout the story the Talkative Man favours himself. That being Narayan does not really give the reader any insights into any possible flaws that the Talkative Man may have. We know that he likes to talk a lot which may suggest that he also likes to makes up stories which show him in a favourable light. Which is very much the case when it comes to the story that the Talkative Man tells the narrator. It may also be a case that the Talkative Man is attempting to instil fear into the narrator when he is telling his story in order to boost his own ego. The more frightening the story the better the story.

The more frightening the story the better the story.In reality it is possible that the Talkative Man is no more than story-teller. As to whether his stories are true is another thing but it is certain that his story about the tiger attacking him in the station master’s compartment is false. It did not happen and the Talkative Man is taking pieces of knowledge he has from other incidents about tigers and developing a story for himself. A story which holds the Talkative Man in high regard with others. Another down side of the Talkative Man’s story is the fact that he has no witnesses to the actions he states he has done. The tiger on the arrival of the station master and then the train ran back into the jungle. Never to be seen again. Unless of course the reader believes the Talkative Man then in that case the tiger has been killed and is being brought through the village. However this is highly unlikely considering what the narrator learns about how the forest tribes treat tigers.
