Abstract: | BothClear Light of DayandCracking Indiadepict gruesome picture of partition violence perpetrated upon womenduring the partition of British India in 1947. Since females became the extreme sufferer during the apocalyptic events of partition, the study is made from the perspective of females. By dramatizing the politics of partition and the consequential violenceinflicted upon women, both the novelists have foregrounded the pathetic conditions of women at the time of war. However,Clear Light of Dayis not as graphic in its description of the partition violence asCracking Indiais. Both Sidhwa and Desai highlight women's emancipation, but without showing the resolution of the difficulties of their protagonists. |
