Ruth Prawer Jhabvala has articulated in her writings the feminine sensibility and feelings of passions, hopes and aspirations, and fear and frustrations of the woman folk with cultural intersection and assimilation of at least three prominent continents of this planet. She is also considered as half Parsi as she was married to an Indian Parsi. Bapsi Sidhwa on the other hand is one of Pakistan's most prominent English fiction writers and is an invincible champion of human consciousness. The present book provides the in-depth critical perspective of cultural paradigms and attempts to give an insight into the deep recessses of feminine soul and psyche presented in their novels.
