I've read a lot about strong cast and varna system in India.
Why have Lin never encountered this phenomenon in the book.

Although it is not specifically identified or talked about in the book, caste system characteristics are clearly noted. For example, the slums of thousands of poor people. The book does not set out to explain the caste system to the reader - it is an autobiography, not a novel seeking to enlighten people on the ways of India.
