Synopsis "Asprishya Ganga and other stories: Short Stories: Short stories"

What happens to the woman who is loved, used and discarded because of her caste? Will a Vice Chancellor give in to the political pressures of a minister, when both of them are Dalits? What happens to a man destined to live in stench all his life? Whose victory is it - that of the Dalit boy who plays the tappeta or the landlord who wins the election? Does one have the right to decide on another's life no matter how beholden he is? What is the relationship between sub-castes among Dalits? Will the exploitation of the poor Dalit continue? What is the bond between the bull and the Dalit who tends it?These are only some questions these twelve stories raise. Drawing on the material from his life, Enoch jolts us out of our complacency to ponder over the questions of caste, class and gender; of love, friendship, power games, exploitation and politics. His characters infuse self-confidence and a sense of pride in their work and culture. In their incessant struggle, they strive to survive equally with others.Through the title story, Enoch brings out the relationship between the Ganga, the revered river and the water in the well of the 'untouchable'.
