Author(s) Dr Reena Singh

Abstract In this paper, I would like to emphatically draw the attention on the spheres of inevitable discrepancies of highly ambitious world, especially to the obsessed appreciator of technical advancement, who undermines its adverse impact on the cultural and social outlook. To clearly state that, though we have made such a great development, but somewhere we have forgotten or bereft of ourselves due to quenching of apparent or external ‘I’ rather taking heed of inner self. With this line of thought, the whole paper on the novel Fury would be analyzed. The male protagonist Mallik Solanka who procrastinates from the real questions of its conscious, through him are projected multifarious problems- Social perversions, moral digression, racism and women portrayal. As these are issues that, deals with the identity crisis of the different characters in the novel. Though Fury depicts the American life and attitude but to great extent it’s an epitome for all the developed or developing nations. Thus Rushdie in Fury tries to depict that, America in the highest hour of its hybrid, was in truth a place of half-truths, half-knowledge, classical mishmash and of course technology. This is symbolic to all those nations of global exposure and influence reverberating the theme of American dream.
Keywords Exile, racism, American dream
