INSIDE AND OUTSIDE STORY OF POST FEMINISM IN MARTIN AMIS?S THE PREGNANT WIDOW

SAMBHUNATH MAJI

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

Eroticism has a wider definition. Martin Amis is the most successful postmodern British fiction writer in defining this. The Pregnant Widow is a demi-bible of polished eroticism. Every psalm of this bible beats post feministic pulse. This small excerpt will be an endeavour to conceptualize post feminism and how it is defined by Amis in his novel The Pregnant Widow. Feminism is often defined as a movement and revolution for the liberation of women. This research paper will focus how feminism came as promise and how they are left untouched. My curiosity equally runs high if this same frustration continues even in the case of post feminism also. Is Amis uniquely unparallel in sharpshooting this?
