Romanlardaki feminist perspektifler, kadınların etnisite ve kimliklerinin temsili ve anlatı tarzlarıincelenecektir. Sonuç olarak, üç eserin analizi, toplumun kadını, özellikle etnik kadını kısıtlama biçimini ve kadınların bu baskıya karşı direnişini ortaya koyacaktır.

The analysis of their works will reveal the common problems of the women and the suggestions these authors put forth for these problem.
For the analysis of three works, the theoriesas feminism, ethnicity, identity and narration techniques will be explained. The feminist perspectives, representation of ethnicity, identity of women and narration style in the novels will be analyzed.
