This article is based on Jhumpa Lahiri?s novel The Lowland. The family which revolves around each other and is ready to do anything and everything for the good of the members faces a movement. The Naxal movement changes all the equation of the members and lead them to rethink what went wrong. The dependence of the members of an Indian family on one another is the theme of the novel. It also discusses how their decisions made their future unpredictable and they all did the same mistake without realizing they were doing it. But in the end of the novel everyone?s perspective seems to be right.
