This research uses the method of comparative literature, which focuses on how the authors of the two novels present female characters, namely the character Yayoi and the character Yumiko, who play a dual role as a wife and housewife and also as a woman who has a professional career outside the home, as well as how the goals the author wants to achieve are depicted in the characters Yayoi and Yumiko.
