見過布魯克林高地的這三個女人：Darley，含著名門Stockton家的金湯匙出生；Sasha，憑藉婚姻從中產家庭躋身上流社會；以及Georgiana，這位心中懷抱千禧世代良心的么女，只想把這一切通通拱手讓人，同時，還愛上了不該愛的人。
在有錢人聚集的布魯克林高地，匯聚於此的財富卻買不了幸福與自由，甚至與親近之人的心意相通。三名住在布魯克林核心富人區的女性，穿梭於豪宅、私人派對、週末豪奢度假與宿醉後的早午餐之間，各自面對父母的期待、成長的迷惘、愛情的瘋狂，以及財富與階級間難以跨越的距離。
Alfred A. Knopf小說編輯總監、現居布魯克林高地的Jenny Jackson以機智辛辣卻幽默動人的筆觸，描繪家族、愛情、階級與人性的複雜樣貌，也道出了即使如書中紐約名門望族Stockton家族坐擁一切，也仍無法逃避的人生難題。

“The season’s first beach read, a delicious romp of a debut featuring family crises galore.”— The New York Times
“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 can’t have, and must decide what kind of person she wants to be.
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.
