Abstract
The female protagonists show an assertion of their rights as human beings and fight for equal treatment. Women writers wither writing in English in India, or writing in British Diaspora, present with insight the dilemmas women are facing. Liberal and unconventional ways of life are desired to avoid those problems within traditional society where self-willed and individualistic women often face suffering caused by broken relationships. Whilst there is much evidence of the alienation of vision and crisis of self-image, there is also an emphasis on an essential self. The characters possess a strong sense of self-identity.
