ملخص المقالة :
In their works, women writers often use the same formal techniques and components to raise ideas and issues related to women and their place and presence in life and society. The aim of the present study was to investigate the common issues of the main female character in two stories, My Bird by Vafi and Someone I Loved by Anna Gavalda, a contemporary French writer. In this study, both authors' views on love, family, and the position of women in society have been examined. Given that these two writers are from two different communities with different cultures and geographical locations, the message and theme of both writers are the oppression of women, their loneliness, and the infidelity of men. The women in these stories seek to discover their independent personal identities, and despite their emotional and economic dependence on their husbands and families, they experience an emotional vacuum; as a result, a sense of loneliness and psychological fatigue due to lack of identity and independence pervades their existence.
