An American tourist who lives in the suburbs of Connecticut and commutes to work in the Empire State Building each day, where he works as a prosperous coffee trader. He decides to visit India with his wife on a whim after enduring what he views as a monumental torment: working for four hours without air conditioning during a brownout in New York City. He comes upon Muni after running out of gas along the highway. He spends quite a bit of time conversing with Muni, but the men are unable to understand one another due to their language barrier. The foreigner represents American culture, and neocolonialism more generally. This middle-class businessman views “time as money” and understands the world in terms of financial transactions and amassing material possessions. When he sees the grandiose horse and warrior statue at the foot of which Muni sits, he immediately sees it as an object he must possess and assumes, condescendingly and through his own blinkered world view, that Muni must be a salesman desperate to sell the statue to a rich Westerner. With his assumption that he can buy anything for a price—even an invaluable statue with enormous sentimental, religious and cultural significance—the foreigner represents the rapacious, emotionless, and mindless urge to consume that is characteristic of a relentlessly capitalistic society such as that of the United States. Thus, although the foreigner travels halfway across the world with the intent to broaden his horizons by exposing himself to other civilizations, his growth in the story is limited, just as Muni’s is, by his blinkered world view and inability to appreciate another’s perspective. At the end of the story, the foreigner does more harm than good to the civilization that he endeavored to appreciate when he pries the horse statue off its pedestal and drives off with this stolen artifact.
