The sixth morning
Summary:
This chapter will mainly deal with “the sorrowful tale of how Balram was corrupted from a a sweet , innocent village fool into a citified fellow full of debauchery, depravity and wickedness”.
Balram thinks these changes happened because they happened first in Mr.Ashok.
Balram remembers.
The moment his brother left he changed.
One night he drove Mr.Ashok around. First they stopped at a disco.
Afterwards Mr.Ashok went into a hotel.
While Balram drove him around they looked at the girls on the streets.
Mr.Ashok walked out of the hotel with his hands around a girl. The girl looked like a Nepali .
They spent the night together.
The next morning Balram overheard a conversation between Mr.Ashok and the Nepali girl.
He figured out that she was his old love and not some pick up.
Another night Balram drove Mr.Ashok and the ministers assistant around.
They were drinking and the assistant kept talking about sexual needs.
He asked Mr.Ashok if he’s ever been with a white girl.
The ministers assistant called a blond girl from the Ukraine.
Mr. Ashok refused sleeping with another woman but the assistant didn’t care.
Mr.Ashok, the assistant and the girl went into a hotel for a while.
Like I mentioned before Balram also tells about his change.
One night he drove around in the car and he turned the music up.
He also started looking through English magazines.
Balram tried more and more to break out of the rooster coop.

Sheraton hotel
Something i found particularly interesting while reading this chapter was the Sheraton hotel.
When I went to America I saw sheraton hotels almost everywhere I went.
And not just in America also in other countries I’ve been to.
I was always interested in the hotel chain so this time I took the opportunity and made some research about the Sheraton hotels.
Sheraton Hotels and Resorts is Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide's largest and second oldest brand
In 1937 Ernest Henderson and Robert Moore acquired the Stonehaven hotel in Springfield Massachusetts.The chain got his name from another hotel the pair acquired.
Henderson and Moore had opened three hotels in Boston by 1939.
In 1945, it was the first hotel chain to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
In 1949 Sheraton expanded internationally with the purchase of two Canadian hotel chains.
By 1965, the 100th Sheraton had opened its doors.
I think it’s amazing how the pair expended their business within 28 years from one hotel to 100 hotels around the world.
And still today the Sheraton chain is one of the best known.
