Paper Title: Representations of Identity formation in Amruta Patil`s Graphic Novel Kari
Authors Name: Dr. Chitra V.S. , P Aditiya Mizan

Abstract: The Indian literary scene underwent a radical transformation with the emergence of a new wave of Graphic Novels which voiced protest against numerous social and political injustices. However, there has been a conspicuous dearth of queer representations even within these new-wave narrations. Amruta Patil’s Kari (2008) becomes remarkably pertinent to this study as it is one of the few Indian graphic novels that blatantly exposes, ridicules, and subverts the hetero normativity of a seemingly tolerant society. This paper discusses how Patil, through her ‘unusual’ protagonist Kari, endorses Judith Butler’s critical theory of Gender Performativity. Butler’s concept of the ‘Heterosexual Matrix’ is also explained in the light of the novel. The protagonist’s search for identity and her ultimate decision to vehemently resist categorization are systematically examined in this paper.
Keywords: Indian Graphic Literature, Amruta Patil, Gender Performativity, Heterosexual Matrix, Judith Butler.
