About this Event
Meet New York Times bestselling author Jenny Jackson. She will discuss her novel, Pineapple Street, a New York Times Bestseller and a Good Morning America Book Club Pick. Pineapple Street was also chosen as best book of the year by The New York Times, Time, NPR, USA Today, Elle, Harper's Bazaar, Town & Country, Vogue, BBC, POPSUGAR, Goodreads, and theSkimm. Jenny will be in conversation with New York Times bestselling author Fiona Davis.
Rife with the indulgent pleasures of life among New York’s one-percenters, Pineapple Street is a smart, escapist novel that sparkles with wit. Full of recognizable, loveable—if fallible—characters, it’s about the peculiar unknowability of someone else’s 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.
A light reception will open the presentation; book sale and signing hosted by Elm Street Books will follow.
Tickets are $20; $15 for Friends members.
