Focusing on the interplay between literature and women's movements, this study examines the works of Irish and British women novelists across three historical periods. It highlights how Elizabeth Bowen's The Last September captures the complexities of gender and ethnic identity amid the decline of the Anglo-Irish Ascendancy, while Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway explores the intersections of class and gender within the political context of suffrage and socialism in England.
