| Abstract: | This article explores the psychological trauma and grievance faced by the characters in The Lovely Bones, a fantasy novel written by American writer Alice Sebold. Psychological trauma is a kind of damage to the mind that occurs as a result of an extremely distressing event. In the novel, the main character, Susie Salmon is raped and killed by her neighbour. Here, psychological trauma is explained through the second main character, the father of Susie, Jack Salmon, who finds it difficult to accept the death of his daughter. Death causes grief and it becomes difficult to accept the reality, especially if it is the loss of a beloved one. This article further explores the pressure and struggle faced by other characters after the death of Susie. It also deals with the forms of grief that the Salmon family goes through. Also, this novel is interesting since it is narrated from Susie’s point of view. After her death, Susie’s spirit goes to a place called personal heaven. So, the fantasy approach is explained in this article through the main character Susie as she watches her family from her personal heaven which is something impossible to achieve and it clearly shows the author’s creativity. Alice Sebold stands out from her contemporary writers as she possesses some extraordinary and unique qualities in her writing. This book, in which the narrator tells her story from beyond the grave, shot to the top of most ‘best’ lists in 2002, earning ebullient praise from critics and exceeding the sales of works from more established authors. |
