But Prakash's tale is set in a world where the 3,000-year-old Hindu caste system still holds sway and social realitiesdoom the chances of a non-Brahmin boy who loves a Brahmin girl.The Girl with the Golden Parasol is the first English translation of Prakash's work to be published in the United States.
