Abstract
This study looks at cultural hybridity and identity reconstruction in Soniah Kamal's Unmarriageable (2019), with an eye toward how the story negotiates cultural convergence and postcolonial identity reconstruction. Examining the representation of hybrid identities and the impact of Western and South Asian cultural exchanges on the construction of personal and group identity are the main goals. Together with Stuart Hall's Cultural Identity theory, Homi K. Bhabha's idea of hybridity and the third space from The Location of Culture (1994), offers the theoretical foundation. The study is important since it helps researchers to better grasp how diasporic literature captures the reality of cultural negotiation and identity development. The study also emphasizes how Kamal's work clarifies the dynamic, multifarious character of identity in diasporic settings and shows how well literature could explore cultural hybridity and identity development within cultural intersections.
