520 8  Annotation|bAs the twentieth century got under way in 
       Canada,?young wage-earning women??working girls?? embodied
       all that was unnerving and unnatural about modern times: 
       the disintegration of the family, the independence of 
       women, and the unwholesomeness of city life. Long after 
       eastern Canada was considered settled and urbanized, the 
       West continued to be represented as a frontier where the 
       idea of the region as a society in the making added 
       resonance to the idea of the working girl as social 
       pioneer. Using an innovative interpretive approach that 
       centres on literary representation, Lindsey McMaster 
       heightens our understanding of a figure that fired the 
       imagination of writers and observers.
