RECONSTRUCTION OF THE PAST IN THE WORKS OF QURRATULAIN HYDER

View through CrossRef
Writers have always had a fascination for history and employ historical aspects in their works as well, knowingly or unknowingly. They attempt to convey the spirit, manners, and social conditions of their time. And Qurratulain Hyder is not an exception. The majority of her works deal with India and its history. All of Qurratulain Hyder's wonderful works addressed a collection of experiences with a small amount of heartfelt substance. She takes the content from the past and uses it in her novels with imaginative reconstruction. The present paper deals with the reconstruction of the past reflected in Qurratulain Hyder’s well-known works like River of Fire, Fireflies in the Mist, and My Temples too. This is a qualitative research work based on the content and textual analysis of selected novels of Hyder. The aim is to enquire into the ways how Hyder has incorporated the process by which she reconstructed or recreated history in her novels.
