Bharati Mukherjee January 30, 2001 (Tuesday) 8:00 p.m. Joint Reading Recital Hall, PAC UAlbany's Uptown Campus 4:00 Informal Seminar, HU 354 UAlbany's Uptown Campus Clark Blaise photo credit: Jerry Bauer Clark Blaise and Bharati Mukherjee who have been married for 40 yearsview themselves as "outsiders" in North American society, and share an interest in the experiences of people who don't quite "fit in." Clark Blaise is the child of expatriate Canadians (father French-Canadian, mother English-Canadian) who roamed the United States in search of better employment. Blaise has written, "As a native-born American with foreign parents, and as a child who attended an average of two schools a year in 25 different cities, I grew up with an outsider's view of America and a romanticized exile's view of French Canada. . .My interest is in 'tribalism' on the American continent, and in all groups who refuse amalgamation and prefer codes and taboos of their." Blaise's rootlessness is linked, in part, to his family's economic distress. Mukherjee's, by contrast, is linked to her family's relative affluence. Born in India, and daughter of a successful businessman, Mukherjee was sent to boarding schools in both Switzerland and Britain, and subsequently attended a school in India run by Irish nuns. Her teachers encouraged her to abandon her Indian heritage in favor of European culture. At age 21, she left India to attend the world-renowned Iowa Writers' Workshop, where she met Blaise, her future husband.

Wife index M/C Online back issues contributors ... next issue ARTICLE Jodi Mason Rearticulating Violence: Place and Gender in Bharati Mukherjee's Wife M/C: A Journal of Media and Culture 04.02 (2001) 'mix' Wife (1975) is a novel ostensibly about immigration, but it is also about gender, ethnicity, and power. Bharati Mukherjee's well-known essay, "An Invisible Woman" (1981), describes her experience in Canada as one that created "double vision" because her self-perception was put so utterly at odds with her social standing (39). She experienced intense and horrifying racism in Canada, particularly in Toronto, and claims that the setting of Wife, her third novel, is "in the mind of the heroine...always Toronto" (39). Mukherjee concludes the article by saying that she eventually left Toronto, and Canada, because she was unable to keep her "twin halves" together (40). In thinking about "mixing," Mukherjee's work provides entry points into "mixed" or interlocking structures of domination; the diasporic female subject in Mukherjee's Wife struggles to translate this powerful "mix" in her attempt to move across and within national borders

Bharati Mukherjee Author, Jasmine, Holder of the World and Desirable Daughters In conversation with Barbara Lane , Good Lit Series Director Answers to Written Questions from the Floor: Audience Question: One of the senses one gets from reading your fiction, whether it's Jasmine or Leave It to Me , is that beneath the surface in America there always lurks the potential for horrendous violence. Has that always been part of the way you see this country? Mukherjee: That's the way I see all countries, including the India of high-walled mansions in which I grew up. I have seen incredible violence, whether it's resistance to colonial governments in my early childhood or Maoist resistance in Calcutta, which now has a Marxist government. I am terribly aware of the ways in which immigrant rights were assaulted in Canada in the '70s when there was no constitution. I've been accused of having a lot of violence in my work. Violence is my philosophical and aesthetic way also of talking about the incredible trauma of self-transformation that people who un-house themselves from one society and re-house themselves into another have to go through.
