  Journeying
from Queens to Brooklyn to Seoul, and back, this is a fresh, contemporary retelling of Jane Eyre and a poignant Korean
American debut
   
  For Jane Re, half-Korean, half-American orphan, Flushing, Queens, is the place
she’s been trying to escape from her whole life. Sardonic yet vulnerable, Jane toils, unappreciated, in her
strict uncle’s grocery store and politely observes the traditional principle of nunchi (a combination of good
manners, hierarchy, and obligation). Desperate for a new life, she’s thrilled to become the au pair for the
Mazer-Farleys, two Brooklyn English professors and their adopted Chinese daughter. Inducted into the world of organic
food co-ops, and nineteenth–century novels, Jane is the recipient of Beth Mazer’s feminist lectures and Ed
Farley’s very male attention. But when a family death interrupts Jane and Ed’s blossoming affair, she
flies off to Seoul, leaving New York far behind.
  
  Reconnecting with family, and struggling to learn the
ways of modern-day Korea, Jane begins to wonder if Ed Farley is really the man for her. Jane returns to Queens, where
she must find a balance between two cultures and accept who she really is. Re Jane is a bright, comic story of falling
in love, finding strength, and living not just out of obligation to others, but for one’s self.
  
 
PRAISE
  "A sweet and savvy bildungsroman....Park is a fine writer with an eye for the effects of class and
ethnic identity, a sense of humor, and a compassionate view of human weakness who nevertheless doesn't make the rookie
error of letting her characters off easy." —KIRKUS REVIEWS
   
  "Park’s debut is a cheeky,
clever homage to Jane Eyre, interwoven with touching meditations on Korean-American identity....Park’s clever
one-liners make the story memorable, and her riffs on cultural identity will resonate with any reader who’s ever
felt out of place." —PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
   
  "RE JANE swerves away from the original in really
interesting ways, becoming an examination of family, prejudice, immigrant culture, youth, and individualism. This is
both a must-read for Jane Eyre-ites and a wholly new, original thing that stands firmly on its own story-telling legs.
— Amanda Nelson, BOOK RIOT
   
  “RE JANE is a rich and engaging novel. Patricia Park writes with
earnestness, honesty, and exuberance, which make the novel thoroughly enjoyable.” —HA JIN, National Book
Award-winning author of War Trash and Waiting
   
  “Some nerve, to take Jane Eyre, reconfigure it, make
the heroine an orphaned half-white Korean girl, all the while mixing new-fangled Jell-O shots, hipsterisms, and spicy
fish stew with old-fashioned romance. Some nerve to bring it off with such energy, color, and emotional insight! Reader,
you’ll love it.” —DANIEL MENAKER, author of My Mistake
   
  “In RE JANE, Patricia
Park transforms Charlotte Bronte’s beloved novel with her own inimitable wit and imagination….A wonderfully
suspenseful novel that will delight those who know the original, and those who don’t.” —MARGOT
LIVESEY, author of The Flight of Gemma Hardy
   
  "The Korean Americans of Queens find a daring new voice in
Patricia Park’s debut novel, as she takes a story we know and makes it into a story we’ve not seen
before—a novel for the country we are still becoming.” —ALEXANDER CHEE, author of The Queen of the
Night
   
  “Patricia Park displays her keen observation skills, her penchant for finding le mot juste
(be it in English or Korean) and her natural gift for storytelling in her witty debut….This may be her first
novel, but it won’t be her last.” —FIROOZEH DUMAS, author of Funny in Farsi
   
 
“Patricia Park’s RE JANE is packed with authenticity, poignancy, and humor. I was enchanted by this modern
retelling of Jane Eyre as the tough yet vulnerable narrator captured my heart.” —JEAN KWOK, bestselling
author of Girl in Translation and Mambo in Chinatown
   
  "What a pleasure, this journey from Queens to
Brooklyn to Korea and back with such a smart, witty, observant insider. And have I mentioned the writing? So many times
I said to myself as I read a particuarly delicious sentence or description in RE JANE, why can't I do that?"
—ELINOR LIPMAN, author of The Inn at Lake Devine and The View from Penthouse B
   
  “Even with
its appealing echoes of Jane Eyre, Patricia Park’s first novel is a true original—a smart, fresh, story of
cultural complications that hasn’t yet been told in quite this way. The funny and shrewdly observant narrator won
me over on the very first page.” —STEPHEN MCCAULEY, author of The Object of My Affection
   
 
“Jane is a hilarious, sometimes muddled, and utterly beguiling heroine. Park’s surprising twists and
razor-sharp writing and deep heart make the pages fly by. This story is all about what it’s like being young and
learning from mistakes and figuring out who you are without fear.” —MARGARET DILLOWAY, author of How to Be
an American Housewife
   
  "A noteworthy debut from a writer who opens a window to an understanding of
immigrants anywhere." —ELIZABETH NUNEZ, author of Prospero's Daughter and Anna in-Between
   
 
“This is a richly imagined and engrossing novel, and also an important work that marks what it means to be
American now. Park’s writing is remarkable for its tenderness and honesty.” —SABINA MURRAY, author
of Tales from the New World and The Caprices
