The Job
by Sinclair Lewis
Three years before the civilian-minded Carol Kennicott came to life on Main Street, Una Golden faced the male dinosaur business. Like Carol, the protagonist of The Robot is one of Sinclair Lewis' most performed works and his first controversial novel. Falling into the dilemmas of marriage or career, husband or office, birth control or motherhood, Una Golden, the "businessgirl" of New York, is the prototype of a businesswoman of popular and literary culture.
