This extended conference thesis examines the relationship between female narratives and power structures in modern British literature, focusing on selected works by Jeanette Winterson and Monica Ali. In recent decades, British literature has increasingly foregrounded women’s voices as a means of challenging patriarchal, cultural, and ideological forms of power. Drawing on feminist literary theory, particularly the works of Simone de Beauvoir, Judith Butler, and Elaine Showalter, this study explores how narrative voice functions as a tool of resistance and empowerment.
