STUDY OF SHASHI DESHPANDE'S THAT LONG SILENCE IN TERMS OF SOCIOLINGUIST PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

In the current novel, Deshpande fundamentally examinations the foundation of marriage in the 
advanced setting. She reflects upon the circumstances and conditions where a lady resides 
ensnared between the strong flows of custom and man controlled society, of fear and 
concealment. Deshpande represents this idea through the personality of Jaya, the female hero, 
who has incorporated the picture of denied womanliness that continually frustrates her 
development towards advancement.  
Shashi Deshpande has introduced the theoretical sentiments and complex encounters through 
fitting English lexical things in her book. Mind goes through muddled speculation process as 
it is impacted by differed clashes a person faces in his/her life (May1998). Every one of the 
characters of Deshpande go through this sort of battle either in marriage or in different 
connections. The expression "that long quietness" in the third line turns into the foundation of 
the book. The expression in the original's title alludes to the quiet of the principal character, 
Jaya Kulkarni, who kept up with quietness all through her life.  
This study draws out the unmistakable real factors of social settings by evaluating the words 
utilized in the fiction. A couple of connections and conversational circumstances are taken up 
from the novel to assess the outflows of the social setting in the radiance of characters‟ lexical 
decisions.
