dc.description.abstractThe current study has scrutinized the socio-political, cultural, and historical dimensions of Pakistani society depicted in Nobody Killed Her by Sabyn Javeri through the application of Marxist Literary Criticism Theory. Through the close reading analysis method, this textual study has executed an attempt to unfurl distinct contours of sufferings that go beyond the walls of caste and class and to decipher socio-political, cultural, and historical dimensions of Pakistani society accentuated in the novel. The study excavates the fact that the novel substantiates the miseries that cut across generations and the barriers of caste, class, and social status. The findings of the study reveal that the novel gives prominence to the kernel issues of Pakistani society such as class system, identity crisis, dehumanization and coercion based on social class, depreciation of moral values, and political conspiracies. The novel also ascertains how characters were caught in the traditions of ‘haves’ and ‘have-nots’. It also weighs the economic exploitation of the characters where everyone wanted to conserve some social status that became unthinkable without money. The thorough comprehension of the text illustrates a pacy assassination plot that may appear wild but will be wholly familiar in the sub-continent. The novel serves as a politically psychological thriller about two passionate, enthusiastic, and politically ambitious women, who disclose themselves intertwined in each other’s lives as they are in the mesh of murky politics.
