Abstract
Ecofeminism as a literary theory has got immense relevance in the contemporary world where both ecology and women seem to go through a hazardous period of exploitation in spite of continued attempts of laws made and awareness programs conducted to protect nature and to eradicate gender discrimination. Arundhati Roy with her debut work The God of Small Things has perhaps realized the undercurrents of commonalities between the conditions of women and environment that the novel seems to present a potential space for an eco-feminist reading of it.
