Description
This book presents the recent trends in contemporary women's writing in English. It throws light on the contemporary Indian women novelists who articulate the various experiential realities of Indian women in diverse circumstances. The creative world that these novelists portray tells a lot about the changes that have come in the women over the ages. From mere articulation to raising a voice and thus to finally disrupting the normative codes, women writers have tried their hands in embracing an overall view of women’s life and experiences. The articles present in this volume represent how women’s writing has emerged as a distinctive genre and how it forms a new kind of female identity. These essays explore the dialectics of void and fullness and the multiplicity of voices and deep silences which mark the ambiguity and complexity of the lives of women. The present anthology is thus an exploration and validation of such ontological positions.
