Abstract:
The attributes, qualities, happiness, contributions, mental strength, choices, sufferings of
Bangladeshi women have been sketched by TahmimaAnam in her trilogy very wonderfully.
Their treatment, acceptance and rejection by the society are also projected in her fiction. A
Bangladeshi woman effortlessly plays the roles of a mother, mourner, sister, friend, patriotic,
archaeologist, daughter, wife, worker. While playing a role and fulfilling her duties, she even
ignores her inner self and perfectly live for other family members. Their sacrifices are usually
not appreciated and valued. In spite of living the whole life for others sometimes their small
choices made for themselves are scrutinized. In TahmimaAnam’s fiction Bangladeshi women
and their lives are crafted with vivid tangible account.
