Journalist Vauhini Vara's debut novel, The Immortal King Rao, has been making waves because it marries a vision of technocapitalism with caste. The book imagines a Dalit man who escapes the coconut plantations of his childhood to live the American dream and creates a company that rules the world via an algorithm. In this episode, she joins host Sandip Roy to talk about the book, caste discrimination, and what she has learned about America's tech sector while reporting on it.
