Abstract: Literature is also one of the media that reflect feminist ideas and values effectively. The present study explores feminist elements reflected in all the novels produced by Gita Hariharan. The works of Gita Hariharan contain feminist elements to a great deal. The present research work is a critical study of feminist elements in the novels of Gita Hariharan. She has executed such reality with a precision of style and magical imagery concepts. She has vividly expressed women’s hopes and aspirations in her striking collections. Gita Hariharan’s novels amply testify progressive feminist elements one after another. Her fictional creations have unity and continuity to bring out social upheavals and cultural turmoil. Her first concern is exploration and realization of female selfhood. She has revolted against the social traditions and the dictum by proclaiming progressive values.
