It is a unique novel without any marked plot or central character, and it seeks to explore the impact of a number of discriminations suffered by Dalit Christian women. This paper is a realistic investigation into the text of the novel to find out the events of gender discrimination resulting into subjugation and marginalization of women especially Dalit women, like Velliaiyamma, Mariamma, Thayi, Vasuki, Maikkani, Maikkani’s mother, Esakki and the narrator herself. All of them are exploited by the male members of their family as well as society and bear the traumatic behaviour at every step of their pathetic lives. In the broad light of day, they are entertained as the home servants and in darkness of night; they are treated as an object of sexual satisfaction. Women have been declared as misbegotten and treated as animals, objects of sexual pleasure, and slaves of men who have their birthrights to exploit, to beat, to burn them alive and so on. 2021 artículo científico 2455-6580 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=703873561009 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/7038/703873561009/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/7038/703873561009/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/7038/703873561009/703873561009.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/7038/703873561009/movil https://doi.org/10.53032/tcl.2021.6.5.09 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=7038 The Creative Launcher application/pdf Perception Publishing The Creative Launcher (India) Num.5 Vol.6 |
