Title: A Feminist Reading of Manju Kapur's Difficult Daughters
Abstract: Women are sometimes presented as goddesses; other times as subordinate beings but never as ordinary human beings. Feminism spreads awareness about injustice and oppression of women at the hands of patriarchy. In their writings, women describe and attack the suffocating conventions and norms that restrict women within the narrow world of morality. Difficult daughter chronicles the trials and tribulations of a young girl who charts her own course to define her identity and self. The novel questions the stifling system of patriarchy which denies women the right over their mind and body.
