Abstract:
Bapsi Sidhwa in her novel, Ice CandyMan focuses on the theme of partition of India along with several other themes like the tragic tales of uprooting wonderful dreams of Ranna and Ayah, enormous vacuity of lifeless air that fills the streets of Lahore and the betrayal of human trust. They are all linked with partition phenomenon which left a permanent scar on the memory of India's history. Though everyone seems to be affected by both political and religious horros, very few writers have written about it. Bapsi Sidhwa is one among them. With her artistic vision, she sweeps into a historically s

Abstract:
South Asian writers’ partition accounts attest that women from all backgrounds of culture and religion were the worst victims of the newly-created India-Pakistan border of 1947. Women's bodies were kidnapped, stripped naked, raped, disfigured (their breasts were cut off), engraved with religious symbols, and slain before being transported in train carriages to the "other" side of the border. Taking the romantic example of Bapsi Sidhwa’s Ice Candy Man/Cracking India (1988), we will look at the symbol of women's breasts, following on the theories of Judith Butler and Michel Foucault on power and

Abstract:
This paper presents a critical discourse analysis of the novel written by an eminent 21st-century female writer Bapsi Sidhwa. The text was analyzed critically in the backdrop of the checklist developed by the researcher. The findings reveal that a significantly tough language has been used for the depiction of men and women. Roles and responsibilities given to them have been found to be assigned on the basis of gender discrimination. Therefore, it is contended that colonialism still prevails in the form of social, economic and educational disparities in the third world countries as compared to

Abstract:
Lenny, a young Parsi girl coming of age at the time of Partition and independence, in Sidhwa’s novel Cracking India, says “there is no space for us in Queen’s Garden”. She basically refers to the literal space— the lack of space to accommodate herself and other friends in the Garden, for it is being crowded because of increasing communal violence. However, Lenny’s literality of questioning the space cannot be taken for granted. This voice of the innocent, Lenny triggers prominent thematic content in social-cultural context of Partition. If her search for space is seen in broad spectrum of Part
