Question: Analyze the representation of marginalized voices in literature
from the late 20th century to the present. Provide examples of texts that
amplify these voices.

marginalized voices. In Toni Morrison's "Beloved," the novel powerfully depicts
the experiences of enslaved individuals and explores the lasting impact of
historical trauma on African American communities.

century. How do authors address the interconnectedness of cultures and
societies in a globalized world?

Mohsin Hamid's "Exit West" explores the interconnectedness of individuals and
cultures in a globalized world, emphasizing the fluidity of borders and the shared
human experience across diverse backgrounds.
