Gloria Naylor, a celebrated African American novelist, presents in The Women of Brewster Place the struggles and hopes of seven women who choose to live in Brewster Place for some reason or the other. Though of different age and from different background, the women reach out to each other and together find the strength to resist oppression. Through short story cycle, Naylor establishes that however ordinary her life might be, in each woman there is something to admire and something to honour or remember. Its structure is an advantage to the writer to give voice to as many women as she desires. Moving away from the traditional form and linear narrative, Naylor has made use of short story cycle which suits her attempt to retrieve the lost ‘her’ stories and bring to light the experiences unexplored and excluded even by the male black writers.
