Abstract
Abstract. This research article explores the evolving portrayals of gender identity in 21st-century British and Azerbaijani literature, shedding light on the diverse perspectives and narratives that reflect the changing sociocultural landscapes of these two distinct regions. Through an analysis of selected literary works, the study aims to examine how authors like Ali Smith's, Jeanette Winterson's, Zadie Smith, Alan Hollinghurst, etc. from UK and Jafar Jabbarli, Yusif Vazir Chamanzaminli, Afag Masud, etc. from Azerbaijan engage with and represent gender identity, challenging traditional norms and contributing to the ongoing discourse on gender equality and diversity. British literature explores diverse gender expressions, delving into fluid identities and the intersectionality of gender with other facets of diversity. Simultaneously, Azerbaijani literature grapples with the complexities of modernity, offering insights into how societal shifts impact perceptions of gender roles and individual identity.
