| Plot Summary of Pink Slip |
|---|
"Lisa Diodetto had not given much thought to falling in love, going so far as to avoid bouquets at weddings and keeping close company with only one man -- her gay cousin. She pokes fun at corporate America through the novel she writes on company time and pokes fun at the traditional role of wife through her interactions with her mother. Completely unexpected, Lisa finds herself falling in love -- with her boss!"
Jessica Marler, Resident Scholar
