Re Jane
352 pages; Pamela Dorman/Viking

Jane Re travels from Queens to Brooklyn to Seoul and back again, but her hardest journey is from subservience to independence. Like her Brontëan namesake, Jane narrates her tale with honesty and wit, chronicling the humiliations of toiling at her uncle's grocery store, an affair that’s at once thrilling and disastrous and finally her path to freedom. Reader, you'll love her.
