In which of Anita Desai’s novels does an insane wife kill her husband?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
In Cry, the Peacock, Maya’s psychological crisis culminates in her killing her husband Gautama. Voices in the City, In Custody and Baumgartner’s Bombay have different central situations and do not identify this wife–husband tragedy. The source’s diagnostic wording is preserved as part of the question.
