- Abstract
The paper endeavors to find out the presentation of speech in H.M. Naqvi's novel Home Boy. The study is corpus based and limited to the investigation of direct and indirect forms of speech only. The frequencies of both the categories have been analyzed through quantitative measures and their function in the selected corpus has been discussed qualitatively. Findings revealed that the direct form of speech is more frequent as compared to indirect speech that results in immediacy and dramatization in the novel.
