The objective is to discuss, in terms of gynocriticism and literary studies, the writing of this enigmatic woman. The results of the analysis reveal, on one hand, method to disempower women was to accusing them of being abnormal for disobeying social standards, and on the other hand, the writer's ability to dismantle these discourses. Thus, the aim is to demonstrate that writing was a way to understand how women were perceived by society and, simultaneously, to seek their own identity outside of establi shed roles and patterns.
