This book chronicles the torturous journey of women from being confined within the limits of the house to being a “major voice” in society. It also highlights scenarios in which women have been discriminated against throughout history. This work will help in reconfiguring the set standards, values, and parameters by which women are judged in society. It foregrounds its studies by examining literary texts, case studies, and popular practices, showing how the era of social media has tacitly brought about the suffragette movement of the 21st century.
