He, the product of white cultural background and mentality is conscious about his own belongingness which forms and develops colonialist and hegemonic view over others as well as that bars him from promoting mutual bond with the characters representing other cultural and social background. The narrator, Nick renders the intellect of all western white colonizers and in the name of telling storyhe presumes colonialist ideology throughout the length and breadth of the novel. |
