Self, Womanhood and Social Order in Narayan's Fiction.
Wickramagamage, Carmen
World Englishes, v9 n2 p193-203 Sum 1990
Narayan, in his novels, has exhibited a preference for a stable social order both as a structural device and as a reverential representation of community life. The effect of this predilection on his portrayal of Indian women, who are beginning to enjoy greater autonomy and social mobility, is examined. (JL)
