Abstract: The genre of pandemic literature refers to the fiction and non-fiction works that represent the world at large suffering from a pathogen. It is not a new genre in literature; it has always existed in the world since time immemorial. Every time humanity suffered the attack of a virus, people either documented their experiences and observations or created stories. Pandemic is included in literature as it is an invaluable source through which people can relate and also gain motivation to move through difficult times. Therefore, an attempt is made by first giving an overview of pandemic literature. This study further aspires to explore the genre of pandemic literature through the thematic aspects of the novel under study. The researcher has used a textual approach with a descriptive research methodology. The author under study is Puja Changoiwala. The work under study is the novel “Homebound”. The novel is representative of pandemic literature and thus includes concepts similar to those in earlier pandemic fiction, such as trauma, fear and paranoia, religion, exploitation, loss, and death. However, the novel, being a work of contemporary literature, also addresses lockdown, media and technology, remigration of migrant workers, opportunism, humanity, and the environment as themes. . The novel lends itself to a clear understanding when the genre of pandemic literature is applied. It aligns itself with the genre of pandemic literature in terms of themes, incidents, characters, and settings. The researcher has thus, explored the novel through its thematic aspects and has used the descriptive method of analysis.
