dc.description.abstractSilence has always defined the life and identity of third world women. It is considered as an aspect when describing their weakness and marginalisation. As such, this study questions whether silence is always a sign of passivity or if it can be a sort of power. This memoire aims to investigate the different strategies adopted by Monica Ali to represent different forms of silence in the light Postcolonial Feminism. The interpretation of Brick Lane (2003) opens up contemporary contexts in which issues of silence, migration, and multiculturalism are discussed. The main aim is to discover the different forms of silence expressed in the novel and their impacts upon female migrant Muslim identities. It investigates the changes that happen to the female identity while being silent. To accomplish this, this memoire will be divided into three chapters. The first chapter tackles the issue of Muslim migration in the Modern English novel in which Brick Lane is a case in point. The second chapter discusses different instances in which silence is considered to be an act of weakness. The last one is about the form of silence which is considered as an empowerment of the female identity. The conclusion suggests that reworking Ali's Brick Lane in the light of Postcolonial Feminism suggests a more realistic and practical understanding of the notion of female silence with both its active and passive forms.ar
