Abstract
The book ‘Dweepa’ has a beautiful storyline which revolves around a married couple who are involved in a situation where they are isolated from the whole world for months together. The author writes and narrates the story in such a way that the reader can feel and experience the journey of a middle class family of the Western Ghats of Southern India who own a small piece of land, work and toil hard in the field and rely on the yield for sustenance every year. The author has beautifully described the houses, fields, people of the Western Ghats and their culture making the readers feel surreal. This novel depicts the helplessness of an innocent land owner when the government decides to build a dam and orders permanent evacuation of surrounding area as a precaution to avoid consequences due to water level rise in that area especially during monsoons. The story mainly focuses on the decision making of this land owner, his wife and her cousin who end up in the land owner’s house isolated from the whole world for the entire monsoon season.
