- Abstract
Indian women writing in English is recognized as the major contribution in Indian Writing in English literature. Anita Nair, India's best-selling author of fiction and poetry, always had an affinity towards writing fiction which encourages women to pursue their life under all the situations. Nair relates to the role women play in their lives and it is reflected in her work. This research paper aims to explore the elements of feminism in Anita Nair's Lessons In Forgetting. The paper seeks to study the work of Nair's Lesson In Forgetting and deals with various problems faced by the women characters such as female foeticide, gender discrimination, love and dependence on family members. The paper also explains briefly how women overcome such problems to move on with their lives. As per the title, the lessons that were taught to women are forgotten only to lead the ensuing, happiest life. Feminism lies not only on worries and depression but also on happiness and expectations.
