Abstract

Female writer Tran Thi Truong writes about female characters by her own reflection, a woman in Ha Thanh with traditional beauty and many ups and downs in life. Viewed from the gender awareness, the female characters in the writer’s short stories are built with rich and diverse expressions of personality and soul. The article explores three main issues that show the gender consciousness of female characters in the writer’s short stories. Specifically: female characters are aware of the female identity; female characters are aware of their own needs and desires; female characters are aware of the male position. Thereby, the writer’s own imprint from the perspective and reflection is clearly shown.
Keywords: gender consciousness, female characters, short stories, Tran Thi Truong
