Abstract

The study revisits the dynamics of border crossing in Mohsin Hamid's Exit West from a global perspective. The study also analyses the intersection of migration, refugee crisis, and identity, all of which represent the often violent aspects of crossing borders. Using these magically realistic elements and postmodern approaches, the study reveals the limitations of the concepts of borders emphasizes the contemporary world which is becoming increasingly globalized, and emphasizes the life experiences of people considering that cultural interactions are not confined by any set boundaries. The study will explore the postmodern implications involving socio-political aspects of migration in the contemporary world.

Keywords: Borders, Migration, Postmodernism, Refugee Crisis.
