Protagonist’s Sacrifice and Alien Arrogance in the Select Novels of Bharati Mukherjee

Abstract

C.G. Jung prophetically calls the artist a visionary. Being a creator vests them with the power to foresee the future and communicate it to the masses.  His conviction in himself is so strong that he could not but convey what he believes; reality explodes from him. Be it the marginalised and the minorities nothing could control them from expressing themselves. Their demand for being recognised as individuals and not as stereotypes gets vehemently articulated in their writings.
