Carolyne K asked this question about Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents:
This author did an amazing job with "The Warmth of Other Suns." I hope she treats this topic equally well. After you read this one, what do you think?

It tracks people's lives, families, and experiences. It is very personal, and uses the personal accounts to illustrate the larger movement, and to explain many current issues. Caste is a different vibe, but it is equally powerful and compelling. I recommend both books. (less)
