| Abstract: | Saadat Hasan Manto is one of the most celebrated and controversial figures in Urdu literature. His writing, fueled by the trauma, and disillusionment of the Partition of the Indian subcontinent in 1947, cut through polite society’s decorum to reveal brutal, unsettling truths. Among his many stories that deal with the horrors of Partition, “Thanda Gosht” (Cold Meat) stands apart for its unflinching depiction of sexual violence, the disintegration of the moral self, and the psychological aftermath upon both perpetrator and victim. This paper attempts to analyse representations of trauma and violence found in "Thanda Gosht,". It employs literary criticism, trauma theory, and Partition studies. It will address the gendered, bodily, and psychological facets of violence. It will also carefully look at Manto's somewhat unorthodox narrative style that minimizes the divide between victim and perpetrator, thus implicating all parties in their shared journey into suffering and unfeeling. |
