Chapter 5 - "The Fifth Night"

Summary of the pages 147 - 167:

The fifth chapter starts off with Balram talking of hens squeezed in Rooster Coops in indian marketplaces and  sales booths. He referred this situation to the social system in India, tells that the servants are like string puppets of their lords and the most honestly people on earth. Balram talks about the same effect, the effect of being caught of system, that servants can´t get out of their way and that they harass each other as well as competition.
Soon, Balram gets to know in favour of him, that nobody got notice of the accident Pinky Madam have had and that he hasn´t to go to jail.
Some days later, Pinky Madam suddenly broke up with Mister Ashok, left and returned to America. That´s the reason why Mr. Ashok starts to drink excessively alcohol more and more often. By reason of his support, Balram and his lord got a better personal contact and first of all, it seemed to become the first exactly lord-servant friendship.
In the end, this chapter concludes by Balram waiting for his lord in the Honda city. To calm down, he made some Yoga, whereof other servants started to laugh at, the Rooster Coop doing its work quiet well.

Personal impressions:

I really like the comparison between the hens, chicken and so on living in Rooster Coops, and the humanly social system in india, the relation between servants and their lords. If you keep track of some situations mentioned by balram, you obviously have to admit that this theory is proved true. So I chose the following picture referred to my impression.
