Author(s) Dr. Nisha Francis Alapatt
Country India
Abstract Sara Joseph is a prominent South Indian writer who was in the forefront of Feminist Movement in Kerala. Her short story “Oro Ezhuthkariyude Ullilum”( trans. “Inside Each Woman Writer”) traces a woman writer’s struggles to break free from the constraints that stifle her creativity in a male dominated society. Her husband, a powerful representative of patriarchy tries to fill her mind with feeling of guilt for abandoning her children and family for her writing career. However, in the end, she manages to liberate herself from the restrictions imposed on her by her family and society to escape into a world of freedom and creativity.
