LOCATION, MIGRATION AND SPACE IN KAMILA SHAMSIE'S A GOD IN EVERY STONE

Kamila Shamsie through her novel, A God in Every Stone (2014) makes her readers to traverse
and witness the historical, geographical and cultural spaces and locations of various countries like
ancient Caria, Persia, Turkey, London, France, Germany and Peshawar that too without moving their
feet. Shamsie intertwines the migration with the history, culture, archaeology and war. Her characters
represent nomadism. They move from one place to the other, from one nation to the other. The author
develops the narrative with the itineraries of the characters. The shift in the narration from past to present
also explicates theme of migration. Kamila relates migration with physical, psychological, cultural and
historical space. The paper attempts to analyze the instances of migration, location, and space from A
God in Every Stone.
