Title

Motherhood and Infertility in Assamese Culture: A Study of Mitra Phukan’s The Collector’s Wife

Authors

Abstract

This study is an attempt to analyze the themes of motherhood, alienation, familial relationships and superstitions regarding infertility in Assamese society as represented in Mitra Phukan’s novel The Collector’s Wife. This novel deals with the character of Rukmini, the wife of the District Collector of a small town in Assam, who goes through series of unwanted events throughout her journey towards becoming a mother. The novelist is able to bring forth the image of a ‘new woman’ within the patriarchal set up of Assamese society through the character of Rukmini. This research focuses on the psychological condition of the chief protagonist as well as the socio-cultural status of women in Assam.
