Improvisational Credos and Concepts on Child Psychology in the Work of Shashi Deshpande

Abstract

A child is the pivotal character of healthy future of home, society and nation. A contended home and a prosperous society can be propounded only if the atmosphere and the upbringing, which will be given to a child, are right and favorable. Child psychology grows in a healthy and peaceful manner with good thinking and great rational power. I wish to write this paper to give the light to a term „the child psychology‟ with context of Shashi Deshpande‟s best novel named That Long Silence in which the key character Jaya suffers from her childhood to till married life with psychological trauma and agony. Eventually she learns to overpower all her melancholies and to live the life with new zest and self-confidence.
