The literature of the 1990s was a vibrant tapestry reflecting the cultural, social, and technological shifts of the era. It witnessed a diverse array of voices and genres, from the emergence of postmodernism to the rise of multicultural literature. Authors explored themes of identity, globalisation, and societal change, grappling with the complexities of a rapidly evolving world. The decade saw the debut of influential works like “The English Patient” by Michael Ondaatje and “The God of Small Things” by Arundhati Roy, alongside the continued prominence of established writers like Toni Morrison and Salman Rushdie. Literature in the 1990s was a dynamic blend of tradition and innovation, shaping the literary landscape for years to come.
