Answer 1

Answer:

C. Celebration of traditional Hindu mythology

While Meena Alexander's poetry often touches on cultural identity, exile, and displacement, it does not primarily focus on the celebration of traditional Hindu mythology. Her works are more concerned with the personal and political dimensions of living between cultures and the challenges of constructing a sense of self in a fragmented world.
