A 20th-century teenager who takes "Jane Eyre" as her bible for living is bound to have some adventures. Happily, for readers of Jane Hamilton's new novel, "The Phoebe Variations" (Zibby Publishing), Phoebe Hudson's travails are largely comical, frequently the laugh out loud variety. [...]
Like "The Excellent Lombards" and like "Jane Eyre" itself, "The Phoebe Variations" could be classified as a coming-of-age tale. To be more down to earth, it's about a girl trying to figure out who she is, one misstep at a time. (Jim Higgins)

(Emma Cox)
Are Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre considered romcoms now?
