'The novel Jane Austen would have written if Jane Austen lived in Brooklyn Heights' NEW YORK TIMES

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

'Searing, hilarious and poignant' MIRANDA COWLEY HELLER 'Smart and clever' GUARDIAN

'A killer debut about class, love and money' GRAZIA

'Marvellous - clever, funny and brilliantly well observed' INDIA KNIGHT

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.
