Bharti Mukherjee depicts diasporic consciousness in her narratives from positive perspective. Her characters show willingness to dislocate and work hard to relocate in a new culture. In the process of formation of a new identity, they suffer and at times feel isolated but they never give up their struggle. Mukherjee celebrates this incessant and enduring spirit of Indians which open for them new frontiers of possibilities and success. The immigrants’ positive move in an adopted land open possibilities of negotiation between two cultures and project them as an ambassador of their native land on foreign soil. Mukherjee’s own stay in Canada and later on her permanent migration to America formed the base of her immigrant characters’ psyche. She celebrates America’s receptive spirit and its multi cultural identity and the same time welcomes the Indians’ tremendous adjusting abilities owing to intrinsic plurality of Indian cultural life which is embedded with the possibility of transforming and being transformed.
