Descripción
This study attempts to elaborate upon the use of concepts such as “identity” and “fixity” in one of Chimamanda’s most enlightening works, her very well-known novel Purple Hibiscus. The aim of this research is to outline the relevance these concepts have in people’s understanding of current reality and provide clear evidence to acknowledge the impact that Postcolonial theory has on literature. Postcolonialism has been debated since the concepts of masters and slaves changed the way humans used to coexist. The research also provides insights and strategies that tackle issues connected to culture, social relationships, power and identity, among others. The study investigates the way in which the majority of characters in Purple Hibiscus struggle with their own identities and are affected by the concept of fixity.
