Mr. Nazim UddinAbstract: The status of subalterns is imposed mainly on the lower caste and lower-class people. They are common victims and they accept suppression as they do not have the economic and political power to fight back the upper-class people’s supremacy. Mulk Raj Anand is a humanist and has deep intellectual concern for humanity and his novels are powerful documentation of subalterns who are suffering from socially setup manacles. The present research paper tries to find out the subaltern perspective in the themes and characteristics of the selected novels of Anand and how the selected novel expresses the voices of subaltern. The novel Untouchable, Coolie and Two Leaves and A Bud offers a remarkable opening for the Indian English writers to explore new world of subalterns. It states a hope, both for the untouchable Hindus and India, bringing the philosophy of Gandhi which efforts to raise consciousness with the purpose of removing the caste system. Anand, as socially committed novelist, through his novels Untouchable, Coolie and Two Leaves and a Bud deals with subaltern voices that are marginalization, casteism, exploitation of weaker sex, hypocrisy and poverty in India. He raises the voice against caste segregation in the Indian society. He illustrates the real situation of Subalterns, their mentality and reality. The novelist portrays the voice of subaltern and demonstrates the exploitation and marginalization of subaltern on the basis of caste, class, gender, minority and status. The caste system has played a great destruction to the people of our country. |
