ABSTRACT:
This study focuses on Homi K Bhaba’s post colonial key remarks in V.S. Naipaul’s ‘A house for Mr. Biswas’, which was published in 1964. In post modern approach, post colonialism demonstrates the relationship between the colonizer and colonized. Homi K Bhaba, who played a pivotal role in this post colonial study coined the terms like Hybridity, Mimicry, Ambivalence… depicts the above mentioned relationship. In his works, Bhaba depicted distinctly in “The location of Culture” (1994), where he focuses on the interaction between various cultures which are merged with each other. In considering Naipaul’s ‘A house for Mr. Biswas’ as a post colonial work, Bhaba sums up Naipauls’s approach to how individuals relate to places.
