As a Postmodern writer Ghosh has intermingled time and space along with the characters situations and incidents. He has highlighted the ordinary lives of people who are just vanished from history in The Shadow Lines and Sea of Poppies. They are martyrs who gave a hope and sense of affirmation, and their personal lives are blended with the national history like Partition, Hindu/Muslim riot, Opium trade and war, Displacement and so on. This paper explores how ordinary characters suffer and how they become important because of the courage and self-esteem they stand apart normal lives. Characters like Grandma, Tridib, May Price in The Shadow Lines and Deeti, Kalua, Zamindar in Sea of Poppies, they all create history through their dignified living amidst struggle, oppression, riot and domination by powerful forces. The impact of Postcolonial rule is highlighted by Ghosh in these novels. Key Words: extraordinary, ordinary, heartwarming, migration, pilgrimage etc.
