Abstract
The objective of this research is to analyze the interplay of language and ecology in Bina Shah's The Monsoon War which demonstrates how linguistic choices inform environmentalist discourse. The theoretical framework utilized for this research is Stibbe’s ecolinguistics approach. The study delves into representations of natural spaces and environments to explore how it intersects with other narrative aspects, such as characterization and setting which reflect on broader themes related to ecological collapse/sustainability in modern-day Pakistan. The study reveals this through the text’s language and imagery by examining how Shah engages with urgent environmental issues. The results indicate that the novel of Shah is not only a story about struggle, but it also lies within its decisiveness a signification arcade of man-nature interrelationship and reiterates the needs for an extra knowledge on ecological mutual liaison. The research recommends literature as a medium to be utilized to provide awareness in reshaping eco-consciousness.
