Body, nature and roots in Arundhati Roy's The God of Small Things; Bodily trauma, and abjection as defining Eastern subjectivity

Original language description

This paper explores narrative deployment of the abject and the traumatic as framed by nature in Arundhati Roy's The God of Small Things; it exhibits multiple versions of trauma, memory loss and abjection. Foregrounded by lush and vivid nature and deep and calm water, traumas occur. Abjection is explored through bodily, skin references, and compared to Freud's concept of the uncanny.
