Title

ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS IN AMITAV GHOSH’S GUN ISLAND

Abstract

This research article indicates the significance of not just human beings but also the physical environment as represented in literature. At present, environmental degradation has emerged as a major global concern for humanity. Amitav Ghosh’s Gun Island (2019) undertakes an investigative journey into the present globalized world of anthropogenic climate metamorphoses that prompt excruciating illegal migrations from the Indian Sundarbans, the mangrove region. It is also the saga of many other undocumented migrants from various developing countries who illegally migrate to the West in search of employment and opportunity but miserably fall victims to human trafficking, xenophobia, and imprisonment. The unpredictable and contradictory climatic effects caused by human effects such as fossil fuel consumption, especially after the industrial revolution, global warming, rises in sea levels, and acidification of oceans show that humans have the greatest impact on nature compared to other living things. Although the existence of man in the world is relatively short, humans are the biggest factor affecting the environment in the 21st century. Therefore, due to the global impact created by man, human impact changes the lives of nature, animals, plants, and himself in an unknown direction. In this context, Amitav Ghosh's novel Gun Island features the impact of humanity on the ecology, which connects the past to the present, with a Bengali myth showing how the impact of humanity stretches into the ecology.
