The aim of this work is to study the representation of the national identity and some aspects of
Indian culture in the novel The God of Small Things (1998) by Arundhati Roy through an
analysis that focuses on the how the author deconstructs and criticizes the representation of
Indian cultural identity still based on the caste system to which is attributed the stratification
of Indian society. The discussion also takes into account in what the novel portrays the
cultural changes that took place in Indian society as a result of its contact with Western
culture, in particular through the English colonization of the subcontinent. |
