The present book seeks to study the feminist perspective in Shashi Deshpande’s novels. It reveals Deshpandes sincerity and ability in voicing the concerns of the urban educated middle-class woman. Trapped between tradition and modernity, her sensitive heroines are fully conscious of being victims of gross gender discrimination prevalent in a conservative male-dominated society. A culture-specific approach has been adopted to unravel Shashi Deshpande’s pragmatic resolution related to the modern Indian woman’s beleaguered existence. The book, it is hoped, will make a rich contribution to womens studies.
