Description
Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2023 by Time, Vogue, Elle, Southern Living, Bustle, and more A vibrant and hilarious debut...Pineapple Street is riveting, timely, hugely entertaining and brimming with truth. -Cynthia DAprix Sweeney, New York Times bestselling author of The Nest A delicious new Gilded Age family drama... a guilty pleasure that also feels like a sociological text. -Vogue A deliciously funny, sharply observed debut of family, love, and class, this zeitgeisty novel follows three women in one wealthy Brooklyn clan Darley, the eldest daughter in the well-connected old money Stockton family, followed her heart, trading her job and her inheritance for motherhood but giving up far too much in the process; Sasha, a middle-class New England girl, has married into the Brooklyn Heights family, and finds herself cast as the arriviste outsider; and Georgiana, the baby of the family, has fallen in love with someone she cant have, and must decide what kind of person she wants to be. Rife with the indulgent pleasures of life among New Yorks one-percenters, Pineapple Street is a smart, escapist novel that sparkles with wit. Full of recognizable, loveable-if fallible-characters, its about the peculiar unknowability of someone elses family, the miles between the haves and have-nots, and the insanity of first love-all wrapped in a story that is a sheer delight.
