Title: Excellent way to learn about the caste system
Product review: This is a well written book about what it was/is like to live under the "rules" of a caste system. I find it is important for me to learn about the lives of others but i do not like dry material. I prefer to read "stories' about what it feels like to be another person in a different life than the one I have lived. This book does an excellent job showing us the experiences and feelings of a young man who is trapped into being someone he is not, simply by birth and the expectations attached to his genetic history. I also found that this book was an excellent way to introduce the historical significance of the movement in India to do away with the caste system. A perfect book to read in a high school classroom. This book will bring about thought provoking ideas for any reader, and is especially valuable for young minds that need to be exposed to the life experience of others their age who live in vastly different circumstances.
