This book explores the quite negotiation of women and the kinds of homes they wish to inhabit. It maps Indian women’s English literature in India and the Diaspora while situating it in the larger framework of world literature. It argues that the house is not merely a backdrop in India women’s fiction but also a character that bears witness to the changes taking place in the protagonists’ lives. The architectural and social spaces of havelis, bungalows and apartments impose their own unique patterns of women’s relationship inside and outside the domestic space.
