Abstract

This paper focuses on border narrative issues in social, cultural and political spheres. These border narrative issues, in the novel, relate to both living and nonliving matters. They highlight new world order in Jago Morrison’s Contemporary Fiction. The study depicts how the death of the novel embraces the new trend in information about the border narratives. It examines the post 1945 novel rather than the novel based on fairy tales. The purpose of this study is to show how the novel envisions the new world order in the novel form. Thesis statement of this study emphasizes crucial narration in the post 1945 novel. These social, cultural and political changes are portrayed in the literary art. The research aims to reassess the narrative views of Jago Morrison’s Contemporary Fiction as a form of art and literature. It adopts a qualitative research approach derived from narrative arts and skills in the contemporary fiction. The study embraces views of the postmodern writers like Ian McEwan, Mazine Hong Kingston, Toni Morison, Salman Rushdie, Angela Carter, Alice Walker, Hanif Kureishi and others. The contemporary fiction extensively focuses on border issues of how the novel approaches as a way of reviewing the current events and develops public understanding in a novel form. Their narrations are concerned with the hypothesis of national border issues in Morrison’s fiction as well as the fiction of other writers. They attempt to embrace the method of the contemporary art and literature based on an exploration of the narrative to seek solution to the problems. The study illuminates border narrative queries that are raised in fictionalized method.
