Written with the angst of an activist, the objectivism of a journalist, the rigour of a poet and the vision of a cultural historian, Untouchable Goa not only reveals some hard truths about life in Goa, but is also the testament of an Ambedkarite who envisioned beauty and justice for Goa, his birthplace.

Storytelling, ethnography, and reportage, all form a single voice in this book which offers its reader the scope to reflect, understand and embrace what has been beautiful and just in Goa’s culture, encouraging us to expand our perception about Goa.

This book is a good way to understand the culture, historical nuances, and stories of the Goan people, and allow you to imagine a place that goes beyond the stereotypes associated with it.
