Alienation, Diaspora, Displacement, Migration, Reconciliation

This paper aims to examine how the diaspora shapes identity formation, where inequity emerges, and how social, mental, and physical attitudes influence and shape identity. Relationships with one’s native country along with personal identities have undergone major changes in recent decades. It is no longer stable, and immigrants are assimilating into society worldwide. According to Donna Tartt’s The GOLDFiNCH, all characters are doing their best to be firmly rooted in foreign lands, but not all are successful. She is an American Novelist and her writing process involves extensive immersion. She beautifully explained her own experience of being diaspora in this novel. The major characters in the novel tries to open up their niche in the host country, but everyone does it their way. The novel does explore the experiences of individuals who have been uprooted from their familiar environments and forced to adapt to new cultures and circumstances. It talks on the difficulties of assimilation and the experiences of immigrants in a foreign country. It discusses suppressed urges and unconscious ideas. The yearning for identity and the identity crises are highlighted in this study. It deftly examines newcomers’ perceptions of their new country and its culture. Theo’s character reveals the actual significance of the title. It demonstrates the need for identity, the pursuit of an expensive lifestyle, and nostalgia. It is the epitome of an immigrant’s instability in a foreign country.
