Feminine search for identity in Shauna Singh Baldwin’s Novel What the Body Remembers

Female in the contemporary era in a way projects an image which totally rejects the traditional image of the same gender. Female has faced many problems in the phallocentric society since ages now the things look totally changed but the current position of the woman is still not fully librated from these problems related to the identity. The main focus of the paper is on the issues like women's quest for her identity, her struggle to achieve a stable position in a male dominated society while fighting with the age-old conventions. This paper explores a new insight for a woman to fight against oppression, inequality and gender discrimination because these are the dangerous social evils for the notion of equality and social justice.
