Discover “Karukku (OIP), Second Edition” by Bama Faustina, a groundbreaking autobiography that shattered literary norms. Originally published privately in 1992 due to its challenging language, this seminal work offers a searing account of caste oppression within the Catholic Church from a Dalit woman’s perspective. “Karukku” is a powerful blend of personal history, sociology, and resilience, chronicling Bama’s journey of self-reflection and recovery from betrayal. Celebrated as a classic of subaltern writing and the first autobiography by a Dalit woman, this edition includes a Postscript detailing her departure from her vocation and a ‘Ten Years Later’ note. Explore a vital piece of Indian literature with this essential second edition from The Bookish Owl.
