Abstract

Disability is a matter of perception. Today cultural disability and human disabilities are the two most important issues, because world has become small and most of the people have migrated to different parts of the country for their survival or due to compulsion. Culture has a very strong hold on every person, sometime to the greater extent that culture determines the survival of ‘self’. Most of the time relationships are affected by the cultural disabilities: cultural clashes and cultural intolerance, which provoke the human disabilities and relationship imbalance or breakup. Thrity Umrigar through her works has projected the complication of the cultural and human disabilities through her works. This article explore these concepts of disabilities of culture and relationship with reference to Thrity Umrigar’s The Story Hour and project the view how human spirit and inborn culture can break all disabilities and enable strong relationships.
