Marital Discord in Anita Desai's Novels

Abstract

Women's inscription continues to engage a place of substance for more reasons than one. It has questioned the accessible viewpoints which are fundamentally patriarchal. All women's writing need not necessarily be feminist. But feminist interpretations can appear through absence and denial. The sufferings of Indian women, marital discord, existentialism, annoyance are the major themes of feminist writing. Female quest for individuality has been a pet theme for many a woman novelist. After the Second World War, it has become possible that women novelists of quality have become inspirational for Indian English fiction.
