FADIA FAQIR’S The Cry of the Dove The struggle against the currents of the past in the present

Abstract

Post-colonial women literature written in English is a new branch that favours women liberty to talk and let her be. In this respect, my research work I have been dealing with attempts at picturing any setting affected by such colonization taking into consideration the case of The Cry of the Dove-written in English and translated in numerous languages- by Fadia Faqir, an Arab British woman writer, who seeks to humanize all people in the world through her dared words and creative writings. As a starter, the dissertation deals with the main pioneers of post-colonialism and postcolonial literature, wishing to link it with the idea that it has such impact on the world, mainly Middle Eastern Part. Then, being faithful to such setting, the novel has been discussed in order to mirror how women have been dealing with this period of Western colonialism over them, with highlights with the main character who, though the suffering, she kept being a woman. If one needs to understand what is post-colonial women literature written by women in English tries to transmit between its lines, Then The Cry of the Dove is the piece of art to visit.
