Book Summary
For the first time, Dalits are writing about their lives themselves. They have long been written about by others, anthropologists, historians and novelists. In fighting against the gross and tremendous injustice that has been their heritage for centuries, Dalit writers give voice to their aspirations for achieving equality. Translated into English for the first time from the original Hindi, Omprakash Valmiki's autobiography talks of growing up in a village near Muzaffarnagar in Uttar Pradesh, in an untouchable caste, Chuhra, well before the defiant term 'Dalit' was coined. As he states bleakly, 'Dalit life is excruciatingly painful, charred by experiences only he or she who has suffered this anguish
