A feminism postcolonial interpretation of Salman Rushdie’s Shame will enrich our understanding of opposing features in peripheral women characters: being oppressed by the patriarchal culture and races and fighting for the right of “narration”. The tragic result of women, however, shows that Rushdie’s peripheral female writing only severs as a tool of his attack on dictatorship and containment in Pakistan, which thus makes the critique of “Shame” become less profound and loses its purpose.
