Voices Across Borders - Stories of Identity and Modernity

Voices Across Borders - Stories of Identity and Modernity

  • ₹ 399.00

This book talks about the link between identity and modernity, which is a recurring theme in literature. Leslie Mormon Silko’s Ceremony, Bharati Mukherjee’s Jasmine, and Toni Morrison’s Beloved explore how individuals reconstruct their sense of self in response to the pressures of colonialism, migration, violence, and historical trauma—all of which are byproducts or consequences of modernity. The authors of this book have emphasised on how modernity acts as both a disruptive and transformative force in the shaping of identity. This book also critiques the promises of modernity—freedom, progress, and self-determination—by showing how these ideals are often entangled with violence, dislocation, and erasure.
