Yıl 2022, Cilt: 2 Sayı: 2, 139 - 151, 31.10.2022

Öz

Kamila Shamsie’nin yedinci romanı Home Fire’da (2017) ikinci nesil diasporik travmanın incelenmesi hem Pakistan hem de İngiliz vatandaşlığına sahip karakterlerin geçmişiyle yüzleşme mücadelesini tasvir ediyor. Roman boyunca diasporik topluluk üyeleri Isma, Aneeka ve Pervaiz'in ikilemi ve mücadelesi romanın kurgusunu pekiştiriyor. Romanın tekrar eden motifi, karakterlerin İngiliz veya Pakistan ahlaki normlarını ve kimliklerini benimseme konusundaki ikilemine işaret eden diasporik kimliktir. Shamsie, romanda diasporik travmayı, Knickers Pasha ve Pervy Pasha’nın şimdiki ve geçmişteki diasporik aitliklerini sefil ve modern göçmen trajedilerinin bir özelliği olarak açığa çıkması olarak meşrulaştırır. Bu çalışmada diasporik travma kavramı, travmanın edebiyatta temsil araçlarından biri olarak Paşa ailesi fertlerinin parçalanmış anlatı sesleriyle Home Fire romanında incelenecektir.

The Question of Diasporic Trauma in Kamila Shamsie’s Home Fire

Öz

The exploration of second-generation diasporic trauma in Kamila Shamsie’s seventh novel, Home Fire (2017), depicts a struggle to reconcile with the past of the characters with both Pakistani and British nationality. She consolidates her fiction about the dilemma and scruffle of the diasporic society members, Isma, Aneeka and Pervaiz, throughout the novel. The recurring motif of the novel is the diasporic identity which signals the dilemma of the characters in terms of adopting British or Pakistani moral norms and identities. Shamsie justifies the diasporic trauma as a revelation of the present and past diasporic belongings of Knickers Pasha and Pervy Pasha in the novel as a characteristic of vile and modern migrant tragedies. In this study, the notion of diasporic trauma will be studied in the novel, Home Fire, with the fragmented narrative voices of Pasha family members as one of the means of representation of trauma in literature.
