Material type: TextPublication details: New Delhi Atlantic 2007Description: 456pISBN: 9788126908301Subject(s): Women and work | Women and motherhoodDDC classification: In 820.9353 Summary: The book places a body of women’s fiction against the ideological territory of radical feminism with a firm belief in its social, political and intellectual essentiality. The absence of this specific discourse in women’s texts stirs an urge for a different kind of gender sensitivity than their limited and undefined approach provides. The book takes into its view a huge compendium of women’s fiction in Hindi and in Indian English, most of which has been victim of hegemonic biases and overall marginalization.Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
