One function of the newly emerging literature is to challenge and extend the form of literature. Women’s literary writings have contested their marginal position to emerge as a key to literature. The position of women in literature in general and the very relationship between women and literature is a complex one in our culture. Women’s oppression, patriarchy, cultural differences, and the issue of identity are the dominant theme in this short story. To conclude we can say that South Asian Literature in English is, therefore, important and must be encouraged so that our cultures find understanding and recognition in the global context.
