A feminist critic sees cultural and economic inequalities in a patriarchal society which have hindered or prevented women from realizing their creative possibilities. Women have been seen in society and literature as merely the negative object, or other to man who is seen as the defining and dominating subject. Feminist Literary theory has focused on this history of male dominance observable in literature and language.

Hamlet
What Strange Paradise
Title: "Discovering Feminism through Gertrude and Ophelia in Shakespeare's Hamlet"
"The play is from a male-centered viewpoint thus it exclusively focuses upon the male characters and their experiences instead of assimilating the view and impacts of the women as well.
"This leads to the assumption that Shakespeare wrote Hamlet with the need to display male dominace."
Title: "What Strange Paradise" is timely & powerful"
"El Akkad's use of divided time builds the story's central critique of an idealized western life."
..."many of the immigrants escaping on the rickety boat have their lights set on North American freedom. He adamently believes no amount of postering will lead them to prosperity among racist white people."
Overall, What Strange Paradise and Hamlet both examine the Feminist Critical theory. What Strange Paradise analyses the idea in a similar way to Hamlet by depicting the female characters as strong and independent while also exploring the theory through important themes of hope and development.
