Jane Hallowell knew she wasn't born, she was derived. No matter what her parents told her. This realization had not come at first. It had come slowly, carefully. It had come because of someone named Jane Hallowell, whom Jane referred to as the other Jane. 2 The other Jane: whose picture hung above the fireplace in a giant frame, whose name had to be given proper respect, who Jane quickly learned was important not just in her home but in the world. + Her parents were very attentive in pointing out every single way, no matter how small, that the other Jane had influenced their daily lives. They would be on the way to Jane's fifteen minutes of park time when her mother would suddenly stop and explain how criminal readjustment had a one hundred percent success rate because of the other Jane. They would be eating dinner when her father would stop questioning and explain how travel to distant worlds was possible because of the other Jane. As a child, Jane believed that life itself was possible because of the other Jane.
