A Ginetic Feminist Study of Selected Works from Bapsi Sidhwa

Abstract

This Research paper examines the challenges faced by women in Pakistani society through an analysis of English fiction written by Pakistani woman author Bapsi Sidhwa. The research focuses on the themes of resistance and struggle observed in selected works, with specific attention given to the writings of author Bapsi Sidhwa. By delving into the miserable conditions depicted in these works, including sexual prejudice, rape, and forced marriages, this study aims to shed light on the gendered inequality prevalent in Pakistan. To analyze the existence of women in a male-chauvinistic culture, this research employs a Genetic Feminist theoretical framework (1980, 1983, 1986, and 2008).
