Is Mr. Biswas A caricature rather than a full - fledged character?

The protagonist of the story, Mohun Biswas, is an Indian born in rural Trinidad and is pronounced unlucky by the pundit at his birth due to the presence of six fingers and because he was born in the wrong way. Mohun goes through a series of life changes as his father dies and his family moves away. He finds a number of jobs throughout his lifetime and finds a passion for writing. Mohun likes to think of himself as a modern man with no belief in orthodox Hindu practices, but he feels greatly victimized when he is not paid any dowry for marrying. He is easily duped but, he doesn't listen to his wife's advice, out of spite for her family.
