Abstract

Literature is a vital field which touches every part of the society and is concerned with human values. It is indeed true that literature cannot be distinguished from the human beings as it is a mirror of nature. As literature is a combination of fact and fiction, it covers the imaginative and supernatural or fictional worlds and characters as well. The study of literature is not only the study and evaluation of poems, novels, short stories, and plays, but also the study of ideas, issues and difficulties which arise in the creation and interpretation of them. The significant purpose of literature is to portray how man is able to face the societal challenges and pitfalls and how he strives to find possible solutions to the prevalingproblems. This paper aims to throw light on the paradigm of subaltern literature, with a special attention to the disabled community. This article also explores the trials and tribulations of the visually challenged people in their day-to-day lives and it encourages the so called non-disabled to lend helping hands to the disabled when they are in the need of them.
