Abstract
Anita Desai in her widely acclaimed novel Clear Light of Dayhas shown the
theme of nostalgia by showing the feuding family harking back to the hazy past. The
researcher claims that by foregrounding the childhood games and the fairy tales the
novelist is highlighting the nostalgia which helps heal the wound brought about by the
feud in the family.
