Abstract
Diseases are fundamentally a human trait. Pandemics, on the other hand, create more intense experiences than world wars. They then become part of the emotional history. Most of the plagues that have ravaged the world have given rise to a variety of expressions and plagues have also found a special place in novel literature. The novel The Pull of the Stars by renowned Irish-Canadian author Emma Donoghue stands out among recently released pandemic literature. The novel takes place in a 1918 maternity unit in Dublin, a city devastated by the Great Famine, World War I, and the 1916 Irish Rebellion. This paper is a feminist reading of the novel The Pull of the Stars and further it explores the impact of pandemic on the marginalized body.
