Мулк Радж Ананд – лучшие произведения

В романе "Неприкасаемый" англоязычный индийский писатель Мулк Радж Ананд с беспощадным реализмом рисует тяжкий удел людей «низкого» происхождения, обрекаемых кастовой системой на беспросветное существование.

Mulk Raj Anand's extraordinarily powerful story of an Untouchable in India's caste system, with a new introduction by Ramachandra Guha, author of Gandhi Bakha is a proud and attractive young man, yet none the less he is an Untouchable - an outcast in India's caste system. It is a system that is even now only slowly changing and was then as cruel and debilitating as that of apartheid. Into this vivid re-creation of one day in the life of Bakha, sweeper and toilet-cleaner, Anand pours a vitality, fire and richness of detail that earn his place as one of the twentieth century's most important Indian writers.
