Kamala Markandaya expresses her worries about nature and human’s virginity in the sense that both are to harmonize with each other and live in peace, so that none of them attacks the virginity of the other. Once humans or nature lose it, they become different elements i.e. entirely different from the one it used to be before the attack takes place. In present era, human beings are more inclined towards excessive growth and development that could be accounted for the theorizing of the interlinking between man and nature. The present paper is an attempt to discuss, analyze and examine some of the major concerns and issues underlying the theory of ecocriticism in Kamala Markandaya’s The Coffer Dams. It highlights the impact of science and technology on human beings. It further brings into light weak human bonds and materialistic upliftment
