Martand and The Dual Marginalisation of Nayantara Sahgal
Journal Title: PARIPEX-Indian Journal of Research - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 6
Abstract
Nyantara Sahgal uses the voice of fiction to bring to the fore a story of the socio-personal entanglement. However, the manner in which the lattice of her narration treats a variety of themes including the life of the present day sophisticated woman speaks much more than that. The struggle of the woman protagonist of her tale is synonymous to the position Sehgal is in, in her professional life.burdened by the weight of her status. The portrayer of imperfect truth that she is often blamed as, comes with the baggage of her being a woman. Being a woman, that too from the higher strata of the society has its own limitations. Hence, a double marginalisation of the author who in her own stylised grace attempts to make the unsavoury truths of life appear a little more delectable when served in her platter of well garbed fiction.
