Post-colonial theory tries to represent and identify the suppressed voices in literature; the dominant, superior image of the West in the historical and even contemporary texts shapes the voices of the colonized. This study is going to focus on the marginalized voices, that is, those voices which have never been heard. The present study aims at analyzing Dubus s House of Sand and Fog mainly based on the theories of the well-known post-colonial theorists, Edward Said and Homi K. Bhabha. In House of Sand and Fog, Dubus depicts the unfavorable situation of an Iranian immigrant family in America named as Behranis. The author attempts to liberate the suppressed voices in the Capitalistic society by revealing the marginalized voices of the immigrants. This study by focusing on the notions like language, identity, class, race and physical space analyzes the immigrants’ situation and it also unveils different forms of superiority through the Capitalistic society.
