Description

Salaamat is a prism through which Khan reflects the voices of the marginalized. This study investigates Salaamat's image as a microcosm of multifaceted marginalization via postcolonial and ecocritical lenses. Salaamat expresses resistance to corporate meddling, environmental exploitation, colonial consequences, and current societal apathy. The narrative calls for ecological harmony and inclusive society systems. This study raises serious questions about the portrayal of literature and Salaamat's position as a catalyst for societal inquiry. Finally, "Trespassing" promotes societal paradigms based on inclusivity, environmental awareness, and empathy.
