Article Name : | | ALIENATION IN JAMES BALDWIN’S ANOTHER COUNTRY | Author Name : | | Neelam | Publisher : | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | Article Series No. : | | GRT-5650 | Article URL : | | ![](images/pdf_download.png) | Author Profile View PDF In browser | Abstract : | | James Baldwin, an African American writer, presents the sufferings caused by alienation in most of his novels. His characters mostly being black and poor are isolated and excommunicated. They are made to feel as an unwanted lot in the society. They are stigmatized and debarred from establishing any contact with the civilized and cultural people, Whites. This kind of ill-treatments makes blacks feel guilty and shameful. Their attempts to indulge in love and sex with whites are severely dealt with and turns make their life more miserable. Though the theme of alienation recurs in most of his novels, it is quite predominant in Another Country. | Keywords : | | |
