| dc.description.abstract | This thesis is a short story collection set in Karachi, Pakistan. The narratives employ magical realism to probe domestic life. The focus is on familial relationships and intimacies to interrogate the intersections of identity, intergenerational trauma, grief, and faith in the context of Pakistani culture and its patriarchal implications. | |
