Opis

The book provides insights into the socio-cultural factors which shaped the lives of urban Indian women within a particular temporal space. It explores the portrayals of conflict, active and present in mother-daughter relationships, in the fiction of selected Indian women authors writing in English within the last decade of the twentieth century using critical analytical tools of Postcolonial literary theory and Feminist psychoanalysis.
