Kamala Das belongs to the first generation of modern English poets who evolved a new poetics for themselves and made a new start both in theme and technique around 1960's. The first phase of Indo-Anglican poetry ended in 1950's. To the poets of this period the spirit of modernism was almost alien. Their main pre- occupation was the spirit of nationalism and the war of independence, partition of country. It was only in the sixtees that things began to take a new dimension where a new generation of young poets took control of the Indo-Anglican poetic realm. Kamala Das is one of the most powerful voices of this post-colonial era. In Kamala Das's poetry we find the best expression of feminine sensibility, its suppression in a male dominated society. So her poetry is confessional and auto-biographical to a great extent, but at times she universalizes what is personal. This research paper would unfold how she rebels against the conventional restraints of society which are meant to exploit women in this man made world. "An Introduction" and "Stone Age" are two of her best known poems where she is intensely conscious of herself as woman, and through writing about the self she challenges the accepted notions of the female and redraft general opinion of the feminine mystique.
