Multiculturalism, cultural hybridity, discrimination, displacement, loss of self-esteem, psychological trauma.

Multiculturalism has become an integral part of the global society today. Multiculturalism occurs with intermingling of cultures, races and ethnicities of various minority groups with a resultant struggle for acknowledgement despite their differences amidst the dominant political groups. This brilliant novel, The Inheritance of Loss holds its pride for being a depiction of a multicultural global society. The entire novel is adorned with the brilliantly colored blossoms of globally mingled cultures and races challenging the racial and cultural discrimination, one the most widely described phenomenon involving diaspora. This novel portrays the joy and despair involving immigration in relevance to cultural hybridity and global multiculturalism. Desai has wonderfully woven the fabric of the novel thereby enabling a positive understanding and response to colonialism. The author approaches multiculturalism positively through the Inheritance of Loss thereby propagating the idea that the whole Earth is a family, which in turn creates a strong encouragement to colonialism.
