Abstract: Manusmriti defines a good woman as “a woman who controls her mind, speech, and beauty and is never unfaithful to her husband, attains the world of her husband, and virtuous people call her a good woman.” Since ages women has attained a subordinate position to male within the society. She is restricted and is allowed to control her emotion and passion. In this world they have taken the place of the oppressed section of the society. And, when the women is a widow she is doubly oppressed; leading to her condition much worse. She takes the position of the subaltern section of the society. When she tries to break the chains or raise her voice against the oppression, she is silenced. This paper attempts to throw a light on the plight of widows and their subsequent questioning; Am I heard? through the reading of Indira Goswami, a Jnanpith awardee’s most acclaimed novel The Moth-Eaten Howdah of a Tusker. The paper also attempts to show how the subaltern one when tries to speak, she is not heard and the person sees death more pleasurable than the oppressed life.
