This research paper tries to record the shared facets between Rohinton Mistry's Such a Long Journey and Firdaus Kanga's Trying to Grow. Both are promising young Parsi writers whose novels are wrapped in thick coverings of Parsi ethnic identity. Today, the Parsi community is facing extinction, and it is crouching in its own sacrosanct and inviolable corners to existing as best as possible with a halo of a break but not bent sort of dignity and hauteur. It is feared that they are on their way to extinction. Unless and until something urgent is done to augment their fast-depleting numbers and revive their religion, they will undoubtedly face oblivion. All visionary Parsis have voiced this perception. This research paper reciprocates the concerns and comments on them in the light of the two novels
