Abstract: |
The partition of 1947 marks one of the greatest events of history. It gave hope of peace and had promises of freedom, equality of opportunity, ending of ignorance etc. But the promises of partition are not kept. Migration, violence, murder, rape, communal riots, traumatic experiences are the real consequences of partition. Millions of people were affected by partition and are still haunted by its diabolical shadows. Instead of freedom, people are gifted with endless animosity between two nations. Amitav Ghosh is one of the most significant Indian writers of his generation who tries to show the illusory aspects of freedom and border in his novel The Shadow Lines. He skillfully describes the traumatic aftermaths of partition including the communal riots. The present study intends to investigate how the long cherished hope of freedom in the form of partition only gives way to everlasting trauma and how the trauma affects individual’s life. |
