dc.description.abstractThis research is a comparative study of Elizabeth Strout’s Amy and Isabelle (1998) and Sue Monk Kidd’s The Secret Life of Bees (2001). The aim of this work is to explore mother-daughter relationships in both narratives, focusing on the challenges and resolutions within these dynamics. The theoretical framework is grounded in Carol Gilligan’s and Nel Noddings’ Care Ethics Perspective. The findings reveal that maternal figures and their daughters face significant challenges, such as past traumas, communication breakdowns due to generational differences, and the influence of social judgments and community expectations. Additionally, the research highlights the processes of healing and transformation that occur through open communication, mutual understanding, and social solidarity. Overall, the study suggests that care ethics provides a critical framework for understanding the complexities of these relationships, illustrating how emotional labour fosters resilience and strengthens connections in mother-daughter dynamics.
