Abstract

Manju Kapur is one of the famous Post-Independence Indo-English writers. She is a feminist writer as she concerns for the pathetic and oppressive situation of Indian women in all her novels. Her novels denounce the Indian women's socio-cultural predicament caused by their entrapment in the male dominated, patriarchal society. Her leading novels are Difficult Daughters, A Married Woman, Home, The Immigrant and Custody. Most of her female protagonists are educated wives and belong to the middle class families of India. They face struggle for freedom, identity and equality with men and space of their own. Their suffering and suffocation in the family and the marital bonds are clearly reflected in her novels. The present paper is a study of Manju Kapur's A Married Woman in feminist perspective.
