ABSTRACT
Women novelists of the twentieth century have played significance role in the development of English Fiction. Round about the year 1930 they seemed to dominate the literacy scene. They made notable contribution to English Fiction. They followed the track which Fanny Burney and Maria Edgeworth had left behind in the eighteenth century. They sought to capture in their work the feminine view point. They represented the world from the view point of women. They also attempted satirical fiction and tried their hands at the Stream-of-Consciousness technique. The present paper is an attempt to have a critical review of leading women novelists of twentieth century.
