On a cold December evening a young European woman of noble descent appears before an Indian street artist known locally as PK and asks him to paint her portrait--it is an encounter that will change their lives irrevocably. PK was not born in the city. He grew up in a small remote village on the edge of the jungle in East India, and his childhood as an untouchable was one of crushing hardship. He was forced to sit outside the classroom during school, would watch classmates wash themselves if they came into contact with him, and had stones thrown at him when he approached the village temple. According to the priests, PK dirtied everything that was pure and holy. But had PK not been an untouchable, his life would have turned out very differently. This is the remarkable true story of how love and courage led PK to overcome extreme poverty, caste prejudice and adversity--as well as a 7,000-mile, adventure-filled journey across continents and cultures--to be with the woman he loved."--Publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 948.50049 Kumar An Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 948.50049 Kumar An Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 948.50049 Kumar An Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Biography B Kumar An Checked In Add Copy to MyList Keaau P/S Library Adult Biography B 948.50049 Kumar An Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Biography B Kumar An Checked In Add Copy to MyList Molokai Public Library Adult Biography B Kumar An Checked In Add Copy to MyList Naalehu Public Library Adult Nonfiction 948.50049 Kumar An Checked In Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Biography B Kumar An Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 948.50049 Kumar An Checked In Add Copy to MyList
