Bridging Polycultural, Monocultural and Multicultural Situations of Immigrants

Name of Author : Dr. OG Basavana Gowda

Abstract: The study encapsulates the changing trends of the contemporary immigrant literatures, and hence, Kingston belongs to the parishioners of new immigrant writers. It insinuates Chinese American mindscape by rereading one of her first novels as a principal source. The study portrays how Kingston chooses to bury the Chinese sensibility with the hope of resurrection, implying feminist identity by evoking monocultural imperatives. Accordingly, how she would desensitize ghosts of fear, secrets and emotional disturbances in polycultural situation.
