Abstract

A literary work, especially novel, is likely to perform certain social and cultural values of its age or era. Arundhati Roy's novel, The God of Small Things,has the similar spirit which tells a lot about the social condition of Indian society where the writer lives. Taking Ayemenem, South India, in 1969, as its setting, this novel shows the tension arises in a respected Syrian-Christian family. They represent the supremacy of Touchable caste which is challenged by the taboo cross-caste love affair between Ammu, the daughter, and Velutha, one of their factory workers who belongs to the damned Untouchable caste. The intensity of caste border between Touchable and Untouchable in this novel is intriguing and it encourages the writer to develop this subject into a thesis.
