Providing rare insights on the question of identity, The Outcaste is the emotionally violent autobiography of a half-caste growing up in the Mahar community, and the anguish he suffers from not belonging fully to it. A milestone in Indian literature in translation that helped publicize the Dalit cause, this volume comes with an Introduction by G.N. Devy tracing the Dalit literary movement.
