Anita Nair reveals the shortcomings of her characters, including their lack of integrity, tolerance, submissiveness, avarice, shyness, inferiority, superiority, love, lust, and fast judgment. They transform to evolve themselves out of their flaw and ride towards either as victims or victorious. She aims at sharp characterization; which strikes with exactitude. The characters fall into four categories physically deformed, psychologically deformed, socially deviant and existential living as separate entities. Ladies Coupe, Anita Nair's second book, is her most spectacularly successful work.This novel reminds me of Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales. In this case, the New Women of Ladies Coupe travel to Kanyakumari in order to locate the pilgrims, who travel to Canterbury in order to gain enlightenment. Ladies Coupe focuses on gender-related issues as well as the thrust of class and gender. This paper attempts to the state of weakness of women, inequality among men and women, and the need of power to fight against the oppression. This paper aims to discuss women's vulnerability, gender inequity, and the necessity of power in the battle against oppression. Ladies Coupe mainly deals with the struggle of a spinster, Akhila, who has oppressed by the burden of the family members.
