Bama’s Presentation of Her Literary Fictions

Aarti Kumari

Abstract :

<p> The present paper deals with the presentation of Bama’s fictions. How does she present her fictions? What are distinct qualities of her fictions that make them unique. Her fictions present Dalit women as focalisers who help in exposing maladies of the society. Dalit women occupy an important place in her fictions eaking stereotypes. The intrusion of her comments help in understanding her fictions well. Her presentation of Dalit rebellious characters like Ponnuthayi in short story, Bama’s narrator in ‘Karukku’ and others is unique. They reject their given identity and try to construct their social and political identity. Her fictions focus on their deprivation and oppression of Dalits by upper-castes. Bama’s literary fictions try to subvert the binary opposition of man/woman, elite/ subaltern, centre/periphery. By adopting their colloquial style she gives realistic touch to her fictions.</p>
