Subjectivity as a Void in the Impressionist by Hari Kunzru
Original language description
This article reads the central character of Hari Kunzru?s debut novel as a traveller within a discursively defined universe of colonialism and argues that the hybridity that forms the texture of his identity is not perceived by him as liberating, but rather as a stigma that he tries to conceal. Further, the article reads The Impressionist through the theories of Homi Bhabha and Judith Butler, who have both addressed the ways in which subjectivity arises as an effect of cultural, ethnic and gender performances. Finally, the paper will try to answer the question of whether the multiplicity of selves experienced and/or performed by the novel?s main protagonist can or cannot land him in happiness and freedom.
