The study examines Julia Alvarez's role as a Dominican American author, poet, and essayist. Despite being born in New York City in 1950, she was raised in the Dominican Republic by a family with Dominican heritage. Her residence in her ancestral homeland significantly influenced her subsequent literary works. Upon her father's implication in a conspiracy against Dominican President, he departed from the Dominican Republic. Alvarez encountered the challenge of the English language. They were compelled to acquire proficiency in English due to the prevailing perception that anyone who spoke a language other than English were deemed "un-American" during that period. Alvarez recounted her initial encounters in the United States and the subsequent cultural shock she experienced. She described her efforts to assimilate into American culture, gradually and unintentionally distancing herself from her cultural heritage. Evidently, language assumes a significant thematic role in the majority of her writings. Alvarez often conveys her perspectives on the fusion of cultures by employing Spanglish, which refers to the use of Spanish-English malapropisms. The study examines Alvarez's work How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents (1991), which explores the theme of language. In this novel, the four sisters ascribe unique cultural and literary importance to language. Therefore, it emerges as the central motif of the story. Yolanda, for example, experiences a sense of being stuck between two cultures, namely the American and the Dominican. She exists halfway between the past and the present. The expression of her powerlessness becomes evident in her unsuccessful relationship with Rudy. Furthermore, the story explores the issue of familial discord and delves into the impact of the political landscape in the Dominican Republic, which compelled its citizens to emigrate.
