The publisher on this edition
Bakha is a proud and attractive young man. Nonetheless he is an Untouchable- an outcast in India’s caste system. Into this vivid recreation of a single day in the sweeper and toilet-cleaner Bakha’s life, Anand pours a vitality, fire, and richness of detail that earn his place as one of the most important Indian writers of the twentieth century.
