Abstract

The intersection of Queer Theory and ecological justice in The Skin and Its Girl highlights the complex negotiation of identity and environmental responsibility inside marginalized groups. While current studies often examines either queer identity or environmental justice one by one, there is constrained scholarship addressing the interaction among these two areas in literature, in particular inside narratives of exile and displacement. Through an exploration of protagonist Betty's adventure to uncover her wonderful aunt Nuha's hidden sexuality amidst topics of lineage and exile, this study investigates how the unconventional intertwines queer identities with ecological worries, shedding mild at the ways societal norms and environmental degradation intersect to form character reports. By revealing the difficult connections between queer identification, familial dynamics, and environmental responsibility in The Skin and Its Girl, this evaluation contributes to a deeper expertise of how marginalized groups navigate complex structures of oppression and resistance. This research offers insights into the capability for literature to bridge the gap among Queer Theory and ecological justice, fostering discussions on intersectional activism and the position of storytelling in advocating for social and environmental trade.
