A Postcolonial Reading of Jhumpa Lahiri’s The Lowland
Keywords:
Jhumpa Lahiri, Postcolonial, The lowland.
Abstract
Decolonization never takes place unnoticed, for it influences individuals and modifies them fundamentally. It transforms spectators crushed with their inessentiality into privileged actors, with the grandiose glare of history’s floodlights upon them. It brings a natural rhythm into existence, introduced by new men, and with it a new language and a new humanity. Decolonization is the veritable creation of new men. (Frantz Fanon 28)
