Abstract

“[t]he reward of sin is death,” and that “[i]f we say we that we have no sin, / We deceive ourselves, and there is no truth in us” (Marlowe, Dr.Faustus 1, 40-43). It is not only acknowledged by religions but also by the moral educated minds of the society. It is easy to spell with others but not ease to conquer in oneself. Self-disciplined life will reward the eternity says the religions; the educational systems say one should be self-disciplined and so oneself will be named as good. The conflict between the moral attire and immoral attires always flashes in the minds of the people. The people with such conflicts pitifully fallen into the pleasures of mind and body and painfully turns up and the process repeatedly goes. It is in the hands of the individual to come out of the conflict and to drown in the conflict. The individual couldn't claim someone is the reason for one's downfall also one cannot deny the influence helps to be influenced. When the influencer and the influencer go consciously this can be avoided but it's like one in thousands. This research paper focusses the themes of Taslima Nasrin, a diasporic writer.  The author portrayed the characters to involve in extramarital affairs, lesbian relationships, living in exile, inappropriate techniques and conveys very strongly. She is independent feminist and she can post her ideas independently.  Nobody can deny that a literate behaves as illiterate. In such times, the reader(s) who read her novel may get a chance to influence though the saying ‘reading is for pleasure’. The imposed thought presented in her themes can be conveyed more polished for the betterment of the society.
