摘要:Arundhati Roy debut novel The God of Small Things examines India's cultural transformation from colonial, post-colonial period to contemporary era of globalisation. The present study of the novel explores how caste and gender suppression is the sign of India's fundamental religiosity as this cultural phenomenon overpowers the whole novel. Cast carries lot of influence in our society. Gender biasness has the same influence. The paper presents the political and social upheavals, which are tightly related to colonialism, hegemony, class mobilization, and hybridity and identity problems in our society represented in The God of Small Things. In addition, the study also focuses on the stigma of untouchability and gender suppression is so deeply ingrained in the minds of Indian people. The issue of marginalization which is an important aspect in the novel has been deeply investigated in the novel.
