Talented, troubled, and selfcentered, Jane Braithwaite makes her wellmeaning uppermiddleclass family miserable, enmeshing them in the complicated lives of a homeless family, a poor teenager with no family, and a wouldbe family foundering on childlessness. When catastrophe finally threatens, all their dilemmas are resolved by the same stunning and unexpected means.All the while, the Braithwaites involve old and new friends in their strugglesa lovesick clergyman, a lonely doctor and his babyobsessed wife, a libertarian billionaire, a moneyloving philosopher, and a hardbitten but sexy poverty activist. Their social and political clashes provide entertainment both comic and serious.Anything for Jane is a fastpaced, beautifully crafted, moving tale of parentchild discord, class conflict, and young love. Erudite and playful, it offers readers a feast of rich satisfactions.
