The book is a pioneering study of its kind, chronologically examining the novels of Anita Desai mostly from a female point of view. The book excels in formally analysing the character and situation relationship in the overall context of the feminine phyche which it thoroughly examines. The value of the book is immensely enhanced by a consideration of Anita Desai’s fictional technique. Dr. Gopal’s formal method is not a closed universe but cross refers to the social structure within which the situations manipulate characters and their destinies.
