Description :
Women have always confronted the reality of violence in many parts of the world. Women's difficulties are more nuanced in India than the myth of the Goddess would have you believe. According to a startling 2018 study by the Thomson Reuters Foundation, India is the most unsafe nation in the world for women. This study intends to shed light on the ways in which novel critiques misogynistic beliefs in contemporary India. One example of this is a marriage between people of different castes. Husband is a professor of literature. He sees himself as a communist who participates in political and social movements for the sake of social justice. The researcher used feminist literary criticism and Helene Cixous's concept of gender écriture feminine to understand the narrator's agency in expressing her female-identified experiences of joy, desire (to push back), and independence.
Also, a qualitative approach is being taken. This research demonstrates that even middle- and upper-class Indian women are still particularly vulnerable to caste and patriarchal dominance. This study also demonstrates that misogyny is widely held, not just among the socially inferior and culturally regressive. That is to say, communities where literacy rates are high also frequently display strong misogynistic attitudes. In India, the men uses the urban places to maintain and reassert their dominance.
