.
.
has the potential to remain pertinent for generations.
” –Associated Press This “powerful debut” (Hello! Canada) for fans of Kristin Hannah and Jennifer Chiaverini about three women whose lives are bound together by a long-lost letter, a mother’s love, and a secret network of women fighting for the right to choose–inspired by true stories.
2017: When Angela Creighton discovers a mysterious letter containing a life-shattering confession, she is determined to find the intended recipient.
Her search takes her back to the 1970s when a group of daring women operated an illegal underground abortion network in Toronto known only by its whispered code name: Jane.
1971: As a teenager, Dr.
Evelyn Taylor was sent to a home for “fallen” women where she was forced to give up her baby for adoption–a trauma she has never recovered from.
Despite harrowing police raids and the constant threat of arrest, she joins the Jane Network as an abortion provider, determined to give other women the choice she never had.
1980: After discovering a shocking secret about her family, twenty-year-old Nancy Mitchell begins to question everything she has ever known.
When she unexpectedly becomes pregnant, she feels like she has no one to turn to for help.
Grappling with her decision, she locates “Jane” and finds a place of her own alongside Dr.
Taylor within the network’s ranks, but she can never escape the lies that haunt her.
Looking for Jane is “a searing, important, beautifully written novel about the choices we all make and where they lead us–as well as a wise and timely reminder of the difficult road women had to walk not so long ago” (Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author).
中文简介:
#1 国际畅销书“聪明和令人满意……有可能保持几代人的相关性。
” ——美联社 这部为克里斯汀·汉娜和詹妮弗·基亚维里尼的粉丝准备的“强有力的处女作”（你好！加拿大）讲述了三位女性的生活被一封失传已久的信件、母爱和一个秘密的女性网络联系在一起的故事。
选择权——灵感来自真实故事。
2017 年：当安吉拉·克雷顿 (Angela Creighton) 发现一封神秘信件，其中包含惊天动地的供词时，她决心找到预定的收件人。
她的搜索将她带回到 1970 年代，当时一群大胆的女性在多伦多经营着一个非法的地下堕胎网络，人们只知道其代号：简。
1971 年：十几岁的伊夫林·泰勒博士被送往“堕落”妇女之家，在那里她被迫放弃自己的孩子以供收养——她从未从这种创伤中恢复过来。
尽管警方进行了令人痛心的突袭和逮捕的威胁，但她还是加入了 Jane Network，成为一名堕胎服务提供者，决心为其他女性提供她从未有过的选择。
1980 年：20 岁的南希·米切尔 (Nancy Mitchell) 发现了一个关于她家人的惊人秘密后，开始质疑她所知道的一切。
当她意外怀孕时，她觉得自己没有人可以求助。
为了做出决定，她找到了“简”，并在网络的队伍中找到了与泰勒博士并列的一席之地，但她永远无法摆脱困扰她的谎言。
寻找简是“一部灼热、重要、文笔优美的小说，讲述了我们所做的选择以及这些选择将我们引向何方——同时明智而及时地提醒人们，女性不久前还必须走上艰难的道路”（克里斯汀·哈梅尔） ，纽约时报畅销书作家）。
