Ruth Prawer Jhabvala and Anita Desai are two major women novelists writing in English today. This is the first book that discusses the theme of marital discord in Indian society in a comparative framework. The book not only offers an in-depth study of the fiction of Anita Desai and Ruth Jhabvala but goes beyond that in dealing with an important aspect of the fast-emerging modern middle-class which believes in equal rights of both the genders.
