Abstract
This paper explores the struggles faced by the women characters in Alice Walker’s The Color Purple and Anita Nair’s Ladies Coupe and analyses the two novels from a humanistic approach. Ladies Coupe, Anita Nair’s second novel, was translated into numerous languages all over the world and was the first book Picador USA had ever printed. It is stated that the women characters in these two novels are the victims of patriarchal oppression, gender-based violence, male dominance and sexism. The comparison of the female characters in the two novels demonstrates how the characters frequently encounter parallel circumstances despite their two different backgrounds. The study shows how the female characters in the novels follow the satisfaction of wants in order to connect with their higher selves. It also focuses on the empowerment of women characters by overcoming all the struggles of their life. Each level of the character’s personality development has been evaluated.
