Pineapple Street

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.
