Today many women writers feel the need for a literature, which can voice feminine issues problems and experiences which are otherwise misunderstood in the male-dominated society. The immense contribution of the women-writers to English literature in general and fiction in particular is worth noticing and praiseworthy. Kamala Markandaya, Ruth Prawar Jhabvala, Santha Rama Rau, Nayantara Sahgal, Shashi Deshpande, Anita Desai, Geeta Mehta, Rama Mehta, Arundhati Roy, Shobha De, Bharati Mukherjee Mahasweta Devi, Manju Kapur and many others have left a permanent imprint of their contribution on Indian fiction in English on the minds of the readers and lovers of literature. Many women writers have made untiring efforts to establish their identity in the male-dominated genre, fiction. These women writers have protrayed the tortured consciousness of the urban middle class woman, who in the quest of her identity undergoes a change from a silent sufferer to a hard core rebel, breaking the age old and restraining ethics of the male dominated world. Today the women novelists have made their permanent mark in the field of English fiction in India. They are being conferred on not only with national, but international awards also for their literary excellences.
