World Of Fantasy In Manju Kapur’s Mother-Daughter Bond In Her Select Novels
Abstract
As an Indian-English woman writer, Kapur has a lot of respect. She has always made a concerted effort to give despondent and frustrated women in society a voice. Her protagonists in her stories are often wary of their devoured and bound existence in a male-dominated world. The truthful portrait of a woman as a wife, mother, and daughter pursuing identity and sexuality in the same way is a way of bringing out into Kapur's themes those that epitomise the emergence of exploring the racial segregation role of women in Indian society and their personal stories that play a part around the place, revealing the women's optimistic revival of herself. In her stories, Kapur's protagonist is unable to move away from patriarchal and traditional social ideals. The story looks at a variety of mother- daughter relationships in Manju Kapur’s novels. She has bestowed a large variety of this kinship, such as the importance of education, marital discord, a marginal level of feminism, beyond patriarchal concepts, and so on. This reviews her fantastical mother-daughter connections, the important causes, unrestrained points, violation of sulcus, total destruction of this amenable partnership, and so on. This paper intends to state the mistakes made by the characters in the novels so that we can avoid making the same mistakes in real life. Because life does not end, especially when we learn from our own mistakes and it also highlights the mother-daughter relationship.
