The E-Book highlights the concept of self-identity, Cultural - alienation and sense of unbelonging in the female protagonists of Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni that echoes the struggles and stiffness resulting in the efforts of negotiating between the cultural norms and the aspiration for a new independent life. In her literary outfit the women immigrants who are detached from their homeland are found to be rational in their minds but customary by heart. Their individual identities seem to be splintered between the old and the new values. They interrogate with their 'self' with regard to the nature and justification of their lives and their part played as daughters, wives, mothers and professionals.Divakaruni's realm of narration concentrates on women's identity and their struggles in the society dealing with both the traditional Indian culture as well as western ethnical background. In all her narratives, one finds the woman's individuality placed at the pivot around which the tales are knitted with a concrete elaboration of their trials and tribulations. Her portrayal of women's identity is realistic, tangible, substantial, and reliable. Her novels give a detailed analysis of the physical, social and emotional predicament to which the woman's self in general becomes victim. Divakaruni not only exposes the psychodynamics of the Indian women but also of the immigrant women in the foreign land.The unique features apparently vibrant in Divakaruni's novels gives the impression of a distinct tone with immigration sensibility, question of women identity, mother-daughter relationship, transnationalism, cross cultural crisis and complexities, self in exile, conflict between duty and desire, gender discrimination, shifting identities, self-discovery, conflicts between tradition and modern values, significance of the folk legends and epics in the contemporary modern world in the wider milieu of diaspora cognizance and experiences. This E-Book has been designed as a reference Book for undergraduates, post graduates, research scholars in Indian and foreign Universities.
