From Bookmarks magazine's Contemporary Life Stages Novels series, we hope you enjoy this booklist focused on the topic of CAREERS (from the Nov/Dec 2011 issue). The selections are by contemporary writers from the mid-20th century on, are annotated by decade, and include some beloved classics as well as works that have been well-reviewed but maybe under-recognized.
