English literature is being changed by giving it a new direction and condition through electronic technology and other tools of social networking like tweeter, facebook, instagram, and whatsapp.Today the lifestyle of man has changed so much that he does not have enough time to sit and study literary works of art. Books, news-papers and magazines seem to be losing their significance in this electronic age. Due to cybernetic reading the practices of liner, closed and solitary reading is ending. Through social media any literary work of art becomes available to read and analyse immediately on computer screen with the single click of mouse on various blogs. Humans engage themselves in deep and meaningful discussion on various social, religious, political and literary issues. Social media is a great platform to discuss and exchange ideas on any issue. According to some thinkers art and literature are developing due to social media but due to modern technology the quality of literary works is also decreasing. Now a days the trend of 6 word novel, hypertext, flash fiction and micro fiction is going on in English literature. This study reveals that there has been a massive revolution in the field of English literature which is the direct result of globalization and westernization.
