In a world where caste is all-important, a scavenger's daughter is supposed to follow in her parents' footsteps. But when she earns admission to a revolutionary school where lower- and upper-caste children mix, she chooses the name Sujata--"born of good lineage"--and
determines to take control of her own fate. Sujata soon rises in the world, aided by intelligence, hard work, educators who believe in her--and a few necessary lies about her background.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
I am the former bureau chief of The Times of India, a journalist with over thirty years experience covering the nation's top politicians as well as writing about the hopes and aspirations of ordinary people. My novel seeks to shine a light on caste prejudice, an important issue rooted in Indian culture, and one that also resonates across all cultures where people struggle with prejudices of race, status, and class. A SCAVENGER'S DAUGHTER is very much an Indian story--and very much a human story.
