Abstract:

This abstract explores the distinctive thematic elements present in the novels of two prominent Indian authors, Anita Desai and Nayantara Sahgal. Both Desai and Sahgal have contributed significantly to the realm of Indian literature through their thought-provoking narratives and insightful character portrayals. This study delves into their works to highlight the diverse themes that shape their literary expressions. Anita Desai, known for her introspective prose and vivid descriptions, frequently explores themes of alienation, identity, and the clash between tradition and modernity. Her characters often grapple with their sense of belonging in rapidly changing socio-cultural landscapes. Additionally, Desai's exploration of inner emotional turmoil provides a window into the complexities of human psychology. This abstract will analyze how Desai's novels such as "Clear Light of Day" and "In Custody" embody these themes, offering readers a deeper understanding of the human experience
