And this is what we can notice in Richard Power's novel "Plowing the Dark". Which is to talk about the role of globalization in developing the world by using programming and art? This study of the novel focuses on Marxist feminist reading, which helps to show how globalization is paving the way for the imagination to create a virtual real world. The novel essentially depicts the struggle of males and females to realize their dreams using art and software to make fantasy a reality by focusing on woman and nature and the power of man to gain the world and create the world in which they want to live. The study of the novel also talks about Orientalism and its interest in the east and the west and the difference between them. Finally, the pre-colonial study shows that the relevant novel presents the English language as well as art as a form of resistance against Islamic fendamantalisman according to Taimur's story and his struggle to not lose his mind.enFeminismGlobalizationPlowing the DarkGlobalization and its discontents in richard powers' plowing the darkOther
