Purpose: One of the new areas of studying in the field of culture of developing countries is post-colonial studies, which deals with the relationship between culture and its elements. One of the important elements in this field is the issue of identity. On the one hand, the colonizer, with the idea that the colony lacks an independent identity, aims to create a new identity for the colony. Literary works as an important cultural tool play an important role in expressing and confronting these issues.
Methodology: With a post-colonial reading of the story "Wolf" by Hoshang Golshiri and "Wide Sargasso Sea" by Jean Rhys, the present study deals with the efforts of the main characters in the story to preserve their identity. Akhtar and Antoinette, the two main characters of these stories, despite their differences, both have defended their identity. The current research deals with the efforts of these two characters with a descriptive-analytical method and a comparative approach and seeks to answer the question that what are the similarities and differences between the characters of these stories in the face of colonial factors and the issue of identity?
Findings: The research comes to the conclusion that although the characters face factors that intend to take their subject, they try to protect it with their own efforts. In other words, although various colonizers want to turn subjects into objects, they have not given up knowingly and are still trying to remain subjects.
