Jenny Jackson is a bestselling American novelist and book editor known for sharp, character-driven fiction about family, money, marriage, ambition, privilege, and the complicated relationships that exist beneath polished appearances. Drawing on her deep experience in publishing, Jackson writes with humor and keen observation about people whose comfortable lives can still become wonderfully messy. She is the author of *Pineapple Street*, a novel centered on the wealthy Stockton family of Brooklyn Heights and the three women navigating life within and around it. Through marriages, inheritances, family expectations, and shifting loyalties, the novel explores old money, class, identity, relationships, and what happens when people with very different ideas about wealth become part of the same family. For readers who love complicated families, social observation, and getting an invitation behind the doors of lives that look perfect from the outside, Jackson offers smart, witty contemporary fiction with plenty to discuss. Her work is especially suited to readers who enjoy family drama, wealthy people behaving imperfectly, marriage and sibling dynamics, questions of class and privilege, and stories where the tension comes from knowing exactly what everyone should probably say—but watching them avoid saying it.
