Introduction:
The portrayal of immigrants in English novels is a topic that has gained significant attention in recent years. As immigration continues to be a hotly debated issue in many countries around the world, literature has played a crucial role in shaping public perceptions and understanding of the immigrant experience. Through the lens of fiction, authors have been able to explore the challenges, triumphs, and complexities of immigrant life, shedding light on the diverse experiences of individuals who have left their home countries in search of a better life.
This project aims to examine how immigrants are portrayed in English novels, focusing on the various ways in which authors have depicted the immigrant experience. By analyzing a selection of novels from different time periods and genres, this study seeks to highlight the common themes and trends in the portrayal of immigrants in literature, as well as the ways in which these portrayals have evolved over time.

Project Research Overview:
The portrayal of immigrants in English novels is a complex and multifaceted topic that has been explored by numerous authors throughout history. From the struggles of early immigrants to the challenges faced by contemporary newcomers, literature has provided a platform for voices that are often marginalized and overlooked in mainstream discourse.
In this project, we will delve into the world of immigrant literature, analyzing a selection of English novels that offer unique perspectives on the immigrant experience. By examining themes such as identity, belonging, assimilation, and cultural adaptation, we aim to shed light on the diverse and often conflicting narratives that shape our understanding of immigration.
Through a comprehensive literature review, research methodology, and discussion of findings, this project seeks to contribute to the ongoing conversation about immigration and its impact on individuals and societies. By highlighting the ways in which immigrants are portrayed in literature, we hope to foster greater empathy, understanding, and appreciation for the rich tapestry of human experiences that make up our global community.
