I'm *amazed* this novel came out in 1979. The descriptions of working a sucession of insecure temp jobs through an agency, existing on the edge of precarity. I mean, this could have been written fucking yesterday! Its also astonishingly modern in its dialouge, its feel, its character interactions. My only gripe is I cant quite believe a 20th century black woman would adjust as quickly as she has to her situation tbh.
