Summary: Study of the Works of Shashi Deshpande. "Amrita Bhalla reads Deshpande's works by going beyond the parameters of labels and descriptions and offers for the first time a critical insight into the way Indian women have been represented in recent Indian history and in contemporary India. This study springs from her belief that it is essential to locate and place Indian literary works in the context of the Indian society of which Deshpande writes. Deshpande, a writer who refuses to 'explain' or 'present' India, has written widely on Indian writing in English, the dilemma of being a woman writer, and the myth and reality of Indian women."
