Abstract
Set in Sri Lanka and focused on the domestic lives of women, this thesis strives to portray the lives of a minority population that is rarely represented in fiction. It highlights characters dealing with marriage and responsibility, tradition and change. The exploration of the family through the lens of domestic life reveals political and social conflicts in society at large. By illuminating the lives of these people, this thesis attempts to make a valuable contribution to the existing canon of South Asian literature.
