dc.description.abstractThis study explores the manifestation of gender violence and resilience in Yaa Gyasi's Home Going (2016) and Kamila Shamsie's Home Fire (2017). By utilizing a perspective analysis approach between the two authors' representations of transnational feminism, this dissertation aims to show their shared focus on the struggles and resistance of female characters across generations and locations. Chandra Talpade Mohanty's theory, Feminism Without Borders: Decolonizing Theory, Practicing Solidarity (2003) serves as a guiding framework for the analysis. A significant finding of this work is that all female characters in both novels grapple with gender issues and violence, demonstrate various forms of resistance, and reflect the essence of transnational feminism. Through perspective analysis grounded in Mohanty's theory, this dissertation concludes that Gyasi and Shamsie portray transnational feminism in their respective literary works, deleaving on the diverse experiences of immigrant women within the domestic diaspora ,presenting their different issues and collective stories and emphasizing the importance of resistance and resilience in the face of oppressive systems.
