V. S. NAIPAUL’S THE MYSTIC MASSEUR; THE PORTRAIT OF A TRICKSTER

Öz

Colonization is a long-term economic exploitation process with a wide range of consequences in many parts of the world. This process has influenced numerous literary works. Naipaul’s country of birth has been colonized for ages, which is why he produced outstanding works in this genre. The colonial process had a significant impact on subjugated society members' character development. In his works, Naipaul successfully shows this character structure. One of such characters is the main character of The Mystic Masseur. The novel's most notable feature is that Naipaul does not openly criticize this character, instead portrays him as a hero. This is not true heroism; there is a severe critique of the character structure that the society has developed. There are specific reasons why society has regressed, deteriorated, and deprived of a strong identity. This is primarily due to the colonization process. As a result, through the Ganesh character, Naipaul criticizes both society and the colonial forces that caused the society to fall into this state. The issue of a trickster character who has emerged as a result of the system and conditions will be examined in this article.
