Abstract

In the age of global modernity where human life is increasingly shaped by the change in cultural pattern, the concept of shared culture is often debated and discussed. Modern life marked by geographical dislocations and displacement is no longer centered on the notion of purity of culture. The present paper analyses the effect of cultural decentralization affected by dislocation in Nadeem Aslam's Maps for Lost Lovers. The reading focuses in analyzing the novel, based on the effect of shared experiences in shaping and establishing their life ranging from intercultural interactions, transnational patterns, and connected life styles. The paper also traces how the decentered culture results in dislocated identity formation.
