The Children of Sorrow

The Children of Sorrow is not a fictitious literature though it is written in a fashion of a novel. It is a kind of historical document of particular period. What author has done only that he recreated all characters and thrown into new and dramatic circumstances. This is a lamentable tale of untouchables who were victims to unequal social system poverty and discrimination. The author minutely observed the twists and turns in their life till their involvement in three point formula of Dr Ambedkar “educate organise and agitate”. The author explained how the untouchables were trapped in poverty hunger dearth and starvation at all times. How the villages were turned in to prison by the high caste people and how the untouchables put to torture there with a view to castrate their brain and morale. Cruelty was the law of the land and it was destroying them physically and spiritually. They were rendered to that position where the crocodile tears also didnt fall to their share.
