Bharathi Mukherjee's Portrayal For The Successful In Their Life

967 Words4 Pages

Bharathi Mukherjee as an Indian born American writer was born on 1940 in Calcutta who contributed a tremendous part to the field of diasporic literature by including her autobiographical elements, clearly focused all the diasporic perspective with greater positive turns. Bharathi Mukherjee won national book critics circle award for her greater work “THE NOVEL JASMINE”. I selected this novel in order to show “HOW A PERSON’S ADOPTABILITY WAS VERY ESSENTIAL FOR THE SAKE OF THE SURVIVAL IN THEIR LIFE”.

Bharathi Mukherjee’s works can be categorized into “3 PHASES”. In the first phase she tried to “FIND HER IDENTITY” in the second phase she expressed the “SUPPRESSION OF RACISM FOR THE IMMIGRANT”. Bharathi Mukherjee in her third phase she accepted …show more content…

Though she accepted his physical attachment it was only an enforced thing but Jasmine did not have any psychological attachment with him. Jasmine got both physical and moral comfort from Bud Ripplemeyer but her heart felt he was not like her husband Prakash or Taylor who attracted her internal aspects and completely fulfilled her in every expectations. Jasmine was “SANDWICHED BETWEEN BUD RIPPLEMEYER AND TAYLOR (WHO WAS ANOTHER PRAKASH TO HER)”.

Jasmine like the other protagonists of Bharathi Mukherjee involved under the process of transformation, but a single aspect distinguished Jasmine, which was her “INCOMPARABLE SUPREME COURAGE WHICH SHE POSSESSED FROM HER NATIVE LAND “

From my point of view the diasporic land or the exiled land or the alienated land not only offered the feeling of aloofness, suppression under racism but also had a greater space for the betterment of our survival.

Thus I wanted to conclude that Jasmine was not immoral in her acts but she lost her root and restlessly struggled for her survival throughout the entire life. So through restless efforts one can achieve and came out with a new flavour and colour in order to taste the delight in

  • The Theme Of Sex In Mohsin Hamid's 'Exit West'

    1034 Words  | 5 Pages

    The novel follows two characters, Saeed and Nadia, as they escape together around the world, teasing each other and learning more about the ideas surrounding sex and its associated pleasure along the way. Through his word choice and character descriptions, Hamid portrays women in his novel as being more sexually inclined than men, taking control of the pleasure they want. It becomes apparent very early on in the novel that Saeed is a very chaste man who wants to refrain from having sexual intercourse with Nadia until marriage. This is witnessed through Saeed’s “a bit excessive a delay” (55, Hamid) in initiating sexual intercourse while in bed with Nadia, and his response of “‘I don’t think we should have sex until we’re married’” (55, Hamid) to Nadia’s comment on whether he brought a condom. However, both characters still explore ways to find pleasure, establishing the idea that direct sexual intercourse is not the only source in which to obtain pleasure.

  • Themes In The Absolutely True Diary Of A Part-Time Indian

    702 Words  | 3 Pages

    Overcoming a challenge, not giving up, and not being afraid of change are a few themes demonstrated in The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian. Perhaps the most prominent theme derived from the novel is defying the odds, or in other words rising above the expectations of others. Junior Spirit exemplifies this theme throughout the entirety of the book. As Junior is an Indian, he almost expects that he will never leave the reservation, become an alcoholic, and live in poverty like the other Indians on the reservation—only if he sits around and does not endeavor to change his fate. When Junior shares the backstory of his parents, he says that his mother and father came from “poor people who came from poor people who came from poor people, all the way back to the very first poor people” (11).
