Abstract
The article analyzes Zulfiya Qurolboy qizi's story “Ayol” (“Woman”) from the perspective of ecofeminist theory. Drawing on direct textual citations, it examines the image of the terminally ill protagonist, the symbolism of sunlight and nature, and the question of medical-institutional control over the female body.
