| Summary: | This research delves into the exploration of balance in Kamala Das's poetry from a feminist
standpoint. Das, a renowned Indian poet, articulates a compelling narrative of female
experiences, reflecting societal imbalances. This study employs a feminist lens to scrutinize
Das's verses, unraveling intricate threads of desire, societal expectations, and personal
autonomy. By examining the poetic nuances, we decipher the complexities of Das's quest for
equilibrium amid patriarchal constraints. The analysis underscores how Das's poetic
expressions challenge traditional gender norms, offering a unique perspective on the persistent
struggle for balance in a society laden with gender biases. This research contributes to the
broader discourse on feminist literary criticism and South Asian women's writing. |
