Summary

Introduction

Research on women's participation in the public sphere, especially in the economic sector, is still very rarely carried out, especially in literature. Udasmoro (2017) said that the role of women in the domestic field is continuously reproduced in daily life, including in literary works. This shows that women's participation in the public sphere especially in the economic field needs more deeply discussed because many literary works have strong aspects to understand the role of women. In the context of the New Order, women's work was used to legitimize and support men's work (Udasmoro, 2009) It raises the injustice received by women, especially regarding their role in the economic sector
