Abstract
Deshpande believes that she is a feminist and her concerns are universal. Women are caught in the process of redefining and rediscovering their own roles, position and relationship within their given social world. In the extended generation, the modern Indian womanhood focusing on women’s issues, problems and experience is equally symptomatic of the resistance to feminist expression. The inner life of woman emotionally isolated from her family is reflected and refracted in the embryonic woman represented by her daughters without any explanation in the novel A Matter of Time.
