Nabaz Goran is one of the Kurdish novelists in the contemporary period, whose special approach in his literary works is aimed at representing the sufferings of the Kurdish people in the lands under the domination of the colonialist, totalitarian and fascist governments and the image of the oppressed humanity of the contemporary human in the period of hegemony of war and violence on the fate of the oppressed people. The novel The Straw Seller’s Girl, in which the tragic life of the straw seller’s girl and the contemporary political events of her era are depicted, is a realistic account of socio-political events arising from the authoritarian rule of the Qajar and the British colonization of the Kurdish lands that the fate of its people in the vortex of colonialism leads to suffering and ineffectiveness of independence and political freedom, alienation and trampling of human dignity, looting of national wealth and fragmentation of geographical borders. Given that so far no independent research has investigated the consequences of British colonialism in the novel TheStraw Seller’s Girl, this research aims to investigate this phenomenon in this novel. The fundamental issue of the current research is that how and in what formats the features of colonialism are manifested in the novel The straw seller’s girl and what concepts they are linked to. In order to investigate this issue, the author has used the descriptive-analytical method based on the sociological investigation of the features of colonialism in this novel. The usurpation and occupation of the land, the geographical division and fragmentation of Kurdistan, the looting of the resources and wealth of the Kurdish lands and the appointment of the rulers are among the most frequent consequences of the British colonial over Kurdistan in the novel TheStraw Seller’s Girl that, with a comprehensive historical-political approach, narrates the bitter suffering and trampling of another Kurdish identity in the process of looking at the Middle East and Eastern man as material organisms of processing and productivity in the cycle of providing the needs of the Western imperialist world.
