Victimization of Woman in The Novel of Ladies Coupe by Anita Nair
Journal Title: Notions A Journal of English Literature - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 3
Abstract
Anita Nair is a feminist with difference. Her novels explore the disturbed psyche of the modern Indian women. Her primary focus of attention is the world of women and the struggle of women to establish their identity and independence in the context of modern Indian society. She traces the real position of women in the families as well as in the societies. This article focuses on the psychological sufferings and oppressions of the frustrated woman whose only option is to suppress within the inevitable existential dilemma in a male dominated society. It represents the woman’s struggle to define and attain an autonomous ‘selfhood’ and how she suffers a lot to free herself from stultifying traditional constraints.
