Pineapple Street
£8.99
Jenny Jackson’s debut novel follows three women in an old Brooklyn Heights clan: one who was born with money, one who married into it and one who wants to give it all away. Full of recognisable, loveable – if fallible – characters, ‘Pineapple Street’ is about the peculiar unknowability of someone else’s family, the miles between the haves and have-nots and the insanity of first love.

Meet the Stockton women of Brooklyn Heights: Darley, who was born with money; Sasha, who married into it; and Georgiana, who wants to give it all away.
Among glittering parties, weekend homes and hungover brunches, the three will have to grapple with the burden of parental expectations, the hardships and bewilderment of growing up, and the miles between the haves and have-nots.
Pineapple Street is a witty and wicked novel about New York’s one percenters: their first loves, family feuds and the complexities of being human – even when you have everything.
