Abstract- Malaysian Literature in English (MLE) is a selectional literature of less than a century old. Marginalised because of the English medium and enjoying a limited audience, MLE contributes to the treasure trove of Malaysian works. This paper attempts to explore current issues written by women writiers in work published from 2001 to 200. Their writings show women in various subjectivities from the young professional urban woman to the old forgotten sex worker in the winter of her life. by studying this gamut of women though the voices of women, we show the ways in which Malaysian women have been affected by modernity and fast development. While women have made great leaps in the educational and professional sectors, but they too suffer from alienation due to the disparity between personal and society’s expectations. Keywords-Malaysian Literature in English, women writers, gender
