An Overview of Indian Literature after the Colonial Rule

<p>The period that follows the end of<br>colonialism is referred to as the "postcolonial" age,<br>and the term "post-colonialism" was coined after the<br>decline or elimination of the dominance of European<br>empires. There are situations in which it can be<br>challenging to differentiate between post-colonialism<br>and colonialism. The term "postcolonial literature"<br>refers to writing that was produced following the<br>departure of imperial power from the land inhabited<br>by the indigenous people. The postcolonial people's<br>search for their identities got on after they were<br>finally able to break free from colonial rule. On the<br>map of postcolonial English fiction, we explored the<br>works of authors such as Kamala Markandaya,<br>Khushwant Singh, Salman Rushdie, Bhabani<br>Bhattacharya, and Ruth Prawar Jhabvala, Anita<br>Desai, and Arundhati Roy in this study.</p>
