It is impossible to talk about women's issues without bringing up the subject of men's interests in the process. Even now, an examination of patriarchal views reveals that circumstances have not improved significantly for Indian women, albeit there has been some improvement when compared to previous generations. Furthermore, the gender stereotypes prescribed by a patriarchal culture suffocate the true roles played by men and women in society. The repression of women results in a serious conflict of interest in their personal and professional life. Anita Desai was chosen for this article from among a large number of other female writers because she is often regarded as the typical Indian Woman Novelist in English, and because she has made a significant contribution to post-independence Indian literature in English. A continual desire for individuality and independence is pursued by the female protagonists in Anita Desai's literature, despite the fact that they are cognitively and intellectually mature individuals in a patriarchal society.
