Abstract

This examines the theme of woman domination in Taylor Jenkins Reid's novel, "The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo." Employing feminist literary analysis, the study explores the depiction of female characters' reactions to oppression, clearing light on their ability to make choices, challenge stereotypes, and maintain their autonomy in a patriarchal society. The research utilizes qualitative content analysis, concentrating on the portrayal of each husband in Evelyn's life and how she guides societal expectations. The findings reveal examples of resistance, self-awareness, and unconventional choices made by Evelyn Hugo in her goal of personal freedom and happiness..
