520    "The story begins in a public square in New Delhi. 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.
