This paper provides a Freudo-Feminist analysis of some selected works of Taslima Nasrin, Tehmina Durrani, and Meena Kandasamy with the focus on the psychodynamics of female repression, trauma, and aesthetic resistance. Based on the Freudian psychoanalysis and feminist literary theory (which has been revised by 2025 developments in intersectionality), it analyzes the unconscious contradictions and the repressed desires as well as symbolic articulation of defiance inherent in their stories. Placing these works in the context of the shifting gender politics in South Asia, the paper illustrates how literature becomes the place of healing and subversion. The investigation makes a contribution to modern discussions in the field of digital feminism, caste and religious identity, and transnational solidarity movements in the field of postcolonial feminist writing.
