This paper examines the trauma and ordeals encountered by women who have immigrated to western nations either voluntarily or because of external pressure in Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni’s The Vine of Desire. It also tried to stress the personalities of the two devoted sisters Anju and Sudha and how, while being surrounded by many people, they experienced suffering, sorrow, and loneliness. And how their agonising emotions ultimately drove a permanent wedge between them. In contrast to the Indian culture to which they both belong, both sisters are in free culture. In the male-dominated society of India, women are denied their rights and oppressed. The sisters’ close relationship provided them the fortitude to get through all of their toughest life experiences. Without any assistance from a man, Sudha can provide for her own needs as well as those of her daughter Dayita. The experience the girls receive while they are in America shapes them in such a way that they learn how to live in their host country. As Divakaruni describes Anju’s pain, Sudha demonstrates how women can overcome their trauma, which is almost always experienced by many women.
