Title

Identity Crisis in the Works of Jhumpa Lahiri and Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni

Authors

Abstract

The purpose of this research paper is to look at how diaspora affects identity crises in Jhumpa Lahiri's and Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni's works. The researcher has provided references to the novels and short story collections of both these novelists for this aim. As a diasporic writer, Divakaruni persuades western individualism to embrace her point of view, which grants women freedom and scope while rejecting India's conventional culture. The Diaspora, as well as the difficulties and complexities of human relationships, are explored throughout Lahiri's writings. Because of the contrasting cultures of India and America, Lahiri's characters are imprisoned animals. Her writings are mostly on the immigrant experience. In her works, Lahiri emphasizes the lives and tragedies of Indians in exile. She also examines cultural difficulties and the identity crisis faced by second-generation immigrants. Children of first-generation immigrants have no desire to identify with India yet are unable to become fully American at the same time. Each immigrant, according to Divakaruni, would identify with the indigenous people. Otherwise, the identity crisis will be unavoidable. She aspires for each immigrant to adapt his or her way of life to that of the indigenous people to live in peace and harmony with them. As a consequence, in her works, she communicates her sentiments.

Key Words
