ABSTRACT
Feminist and Marxist criticism is applied to explore the disparity between the economic reality that leads to Cal's death in Lisa Moore's February and Helen's apparent ability to transcend economic need through traditional “women's work.” It is argued that Helen's profession is personally and socially transformative, not repressive or regressive.
