Summary, etc. Untouchable is one of the most celebrated novels in Indian English literature for its realistic rendering of the life of a sweeper boy named Bakha who is an untouchable. E.M. Forster describes him in the Preface to the novel, “Bakha is a real individual, lovable, thwarted, sometimes grand, sometimes weak and thoroughly Indian. Even his physique is distinctive; we can recognize his broad intelligent face, graceful torso, and heavy buttocks as he does his nasty job or steps out in artillery boots in hope of a pleasant walk through the city with a paper packet of cheap sweets in his hand.” This novel shows a realistic picture of all the oppressed section of the society during the pre-independence period of India
