dc.description.abstract | Liberty and censure became an integral part of the lives of Indian women who refused to buckle themselves under the pressure and succeeded in changing their own lives and lives of those who were dependent on them. In literature, it was being portrayed by majority of writers, among them, Bharati Mukherjee, became the live example of a free woman who through her novels, portrayed the struggles of immigrant women for achieving their identity. Bharati Mukherjee provides readers to take the challenge boldly against the traditional frame work of the society and to turn her way towards a new consciousness of her own worth and place in the society. Bharati Mukherjee is an Indian-born American novelist who started her writing career only at the age of three. Mukherjee achieved her fame with the novels like, The Tiger's Daughter, Wife, Jasmine, The Holder of the World, Leave It to Me, Desirable Daughters, The Tree Bride and Miss New India. This famous novelist achieved many prestigious awards during her splendid creative and professional career. At the age of globalization, immigration becomes a burning issue for most of the immigrant writers where the world is shrinking in to a global village, the differences melt into similarities. Culture and groups outside the dominant ideology try to find out ways to put forward their Page 8 diversity. In the earlier times, the main purpose of immigration of the third world people was only depending on their vocational problem. But in the present time vocational problem mingles with the desire of avocation for the purpose of crossing the boundaries of native land. But in the cases where cultural dissimilarities are much sharper in terms of racial, linguistic and religion, the predicaments get hopelessly complex for immigrant to cope with the new circumstances. The adjustment problems of the immigrant women in an alien society and their phobic mental condition due to political, gender and racial biasness become vital issues in the novels of Bharati Mukherjee. The women characters of her novels are very familiar and the novelist has very successfully portrayed them in the pre-existing context which really inspired the researcher to do her research with the purpose that the study would be a modern work in the field of literature and would render into helping hands for the researcher to do their research in this area. | en_US |
