Example text

She can never be disillusioned, because at the first hint of disappointment in the lover's character, she abandons him. The Bolter, like many other characters in women's fiction, is in love with love; the object of that love tends to get in the way of the pleasure of feeling love itself. Barbara Pym is another novelist who writes about women's longing for love. Most of her novels were published in the 1950s, and she writes about a generation of women whose chances of marriage had been considerably lessened by the effects of two world wars.

Not all women writers centre their fiction on the women's viewpoint, but when they do, and when they are exploring women's dreams and wishes about love and lovers, the male heroes they create represent facets of men which make them, from the woman's point of view, true or false lovers. This fundamental difference between woman-centred and male-centred fiction needs to be accepted more widely, so that the premises on which narrow critical judgements, such as that made in The Observer by Godfrey Smith, on Margaret Drabble's male characters, 43 will be seen as false.

Women were encouraged to view themselves as product, something the successful male would acquire to add lustre to his life. By choosing marriage, women fulfilled the role society expected, their femininity was attested and they proved they were true women. At the same time, traditional 'happily ever after' endings in fiction reinforced the view that marriage marks the end of a woman's growth; that once she gets her man her 'story' is told. Some women writers of this period questioned this assumption, portraying the narrowing of horizons that it led to.
