Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents by Isabel Wilkerson

Format & Condition: Hardback, Excellent
Genre: Other

Through historical research and deeply personal stories, Isabel Wilkerson examines the often-unspoken hierarchy that has shaped American life. Drawing connections among the United States, India, and Nazi Germany, she explores how inherited systems of status influence institutions, relationships, and the opportunities available to individuals.

A #1 New York Times bestseller, Oprah’s Book Club selection, and Time’s #1 nonfiction book of the year, Caste offers powerful material for reflection and discussion. I recommend it for its accessible storytelling and the way it challenges readers to reconsider familiar assumptions about history, inequality, and belonging.
