Abstract | This research paper explores the themes of identity and self-discovery in English short stories from Northeast India, with a particular focus on Jahnavi Barua's "Next Door." The study examines how authors from this region use their narratives to delve into the complex issues of personal and cultural identity in a rapidly changing society. Northeast India, with its diverse ethnic groups and unique cultural landscape, provides a rich backdrop for storytelling. The paper analyzes how writers like Barua capture the essence of this region and its people through their characters and plotlines. "Next Door" serves as a prime example, offering insights into the struggles and triumphs of individuals as they navigate their sense of self within their community and the wider world. The research highlights the importance of these stories in giving voice to the experiences of Northeast Indians, often under-represented in mainstream Indian literature. It also discusses how themes of identity and self-discovery resonate with readers beyond the region, touching on universal human experiences. By examining Barua's work and other short stories from Northeast India, this paper aims to contribute to the growing body of literature on regional Indian writing in English and its significance in understanding the complexities of modern Indian society. |
