Representation of Women writers in Indian writing English novels with Special Reference to the works of Anita Desai
Abstract
Indian women novelists have played very important and historic roles in enriching the manner and magnitude of the Indian Writing in English. They have enhanced the point of view of the other sex: the women to the fictional world. Some of the novelists have also ventured into the representative aspects of the women of the society and their outlook. It is needless to say that there were many women of the contemporary society of the time who actively contributed during the freedom struggle of India and also participated on the forefront in reforming the society of the previous century of the British rule. These and many more aspects of women contribution and participation can be seen reflected in writings of the women novelists.
