The overarching concern of this book is a broad analysis of shifting nature of woman’s identity in the light of the theoretical propositions propounded by feminist critics like Helene Cixous and Judith Butler. The book exclusively centers around a comprehension of female identity as a notion that is constantly in a process of becoming rather than being a static and non-transmutable category. Accordingly, this book probes deep into the intricate mechanisms of the fragmentation, shift and evolution of the female identity that is constantly in flux and in the process, the book intends to unravel the complex processes through which the alterations of the female self may occur. The book examines how a woman’s selfhood remains open to interventions of multiple familial and societal factors that contribute towards the formation of her ‘self’ in a scenario where the factors involved in the formation of the female identity vary from individual to individual. The featured authors examined in the book are Margaret Atwood, Doris Lessing and Jeanette Winterson and the works considered for critical analysis are The Blind Assassin (2000), The Golden Notebook (1962) and Written on the Body (1992).
