"When writer Caroline Lash arrives in Greenhead, she falls immediately for its scenic beaches and New England charm – and even harder for Van Whittaker, a gorgeous, fleece-wearing, litter-collecting, kayak enthusiast. She meets his friends: Augusta, old money and uptight; Fran, drowning in everyone else’s problems whilst keeping two kids (and an inebriated husband) afloat; and Bailey, who is sexy, confident . . . and inconveniently pregnant with Van’s child. Determined nothing will dull the shine of her new romance, Caroline joins the friends as they run wild through Greenhead, drinking on houseboats, gossiping on beaches while their children paddle, and playing risky games. It seems the fun will last forever – until it doesn’t. As decades-old friendships and marriages begin to fracture, Caroline’s place in their world is called into question. And with all the group’s most tightly held secrets at stake, who knows what might come out? Dazzlingly funny, sexy, and as juicy as it is astute, THE SHAMPOO EFFECT is a story of late-night parties, early mornings with small children, and old friends finally growing up – despite all their best efforts. © Jenny Jackson 2026 (P) Penguin Audio 2026"

[Spanish] - La casa de Pineapple Street
"Un auténtico éxito que ha revolucionado las listas de más vendidos. Una novela afilada y divertida sobre la familia, las diferencias de clase... y tres mujeres del clan más adinerado de Brooklyn. Darley, la hija mayor de los Stockton, acomodada, bien relacionada y criada entre algodones, ha cambiado su trabajo y su herencia por la maternidad. Sasha, una chica normal de clase media, entra en el clan como una forastera al casarse con Cord. Y Georgiana, la más joven, se ha enamorado de alguien con quien no puede estar en un arrebato irresponsable. Repleta de lujos neoyorquinos, fiestas deslumbrantes y brunches con resaca, La casa de Pineapple Street es una comedia costumbrista, fresca y adictiva que nos sumerge en la vida de los ricos de Nueva York para reflexionar sobre la frivolidad, las relaciones, la familia y la enorme brecha que separa a los que tienen de los que no. La crítica ha dicho: «Un delicioso debut sobre los periplos de una familia adinerada en crisis». The New York Times «Una sátira de la nueva Edad Dorada ambientada en el exuberante barrio de Brooklyn Heights. Un libro desenfadado que retrata la élite de la sociedad neoyorquina». Vogue «Una historia llena de ingenio y fácil de devorar sobre la guerra interminable entre el dinero y el amor». Elle «A aquellos que quieran comerse a los ricos se les va a hacer la boca agua leyendo... Esta lectura ligera es el equivalente literario a una comedia dramática de Netflix». The Wall Street Journal «Un debut absorbente». The New Yorker «Esta ingeniosa novela sobre los que tienen mucho, y los que tiene todavía más, es Succession pero con más alma». TIME «Brillante... Un libro inteligente, lleno de agudas observaciones y de pequeñas joyas». The Washington Post «Un drama doméstico divertidísimo acerca de una familia que se ahoga en sus propios excesos. Disfrutarás profundamente juzgándolos». Glamour «Una lectura más compleja de lo que parece... Y sorprendentemente oportuna». The Guardian"

Audiobook
"Immobiliaristi da generazioni, gli Stockton sono l'emblema dell'alta società newyorchese. La loro vita è cadenzata da happening al circolo del golf, accordi prematrimoniali e cene a tema, organizzate dalla matriarca Tilda nella grande villa sul lungofiume di Brooklyn Heights. Ma dietro lo stile old money e l'educazione da Ivy League, l'unico linguaggio che sembrano conoscere e che ne regola i rapporti è quello della competizione e del conformismo. Darley, la figlia maggiore, ha deciso di dare ascolto al cuore e sposare l'uomo che ama, e come contropartita ha dovuto rinunciare a una fetta di eredità e alla propria carriera. Sasha, moglie di Cord, il primogenito, è una donna indipendente che ha sempre lavorato e si è fatta da sé e forse, proprio per questo, è considerata dalle cognate un'arrampicatrice sociale. Infine Georgiana, la piccola di casa, ventiseienne impulsiva e fragile: lavora per un'organizzazione no-profit, ha una cotta per il suo capo e la madre le parla soltanto sul campo da tennis. L'incompatibilità tra i propri privilegi e le ambizioni personali pone ciascuna delle tre protagoniste di fronte a una scelta cruciale: negare se stessa, o inventarsi un modo per essere felice. Con questa 'commedia di classe' piena di personaggi divertenti e irresistibili, Jackson si è rivelata una delle scrittrici più originali nel panorama letterario americano, capace di raccontare con sguardo intransigente e voce affilata le poche virtù e le molte miserie dell'1% più ricco del mondo. contributori TR Mirko Zihlay LE Sonia Colombo"

Pineapple Street: THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
"Brought to you by Penguin. This unputdownable debut follows three women in an old Brooklyn Heights clan: one who was born with money, one who married into it, and one who wants to give it all away. Darley, the eldest daughter in the well-connected, carefully-guarded Stockton family, has never had to worry about money. Darley followed her heart, trading her job and her inheritance for motherhood, sacrificing more of herself than she ever intended. Sasha, Darley's new sister-in-law, has come from more humble origins, and her hesitancy about signing a pre-nup has everyone worried about her intentions. And Georgiana, the baby of the family, has fallen in love with someone she can't (and really shouldn't) have, and must confront the kind of person she wants to be. Shot through with the indulgent pleasures of life among New York's one per centers - glittering parties, weekend homes and hungover brunches - Pineapple Street is a scintillating, escapist novel that sparkles with wit and wry humour. Full of recognisable, loveable if fallible characters (and a few appalling ones!), it's about the peculiar unknowability of someone else's family, the miles between the haves and have-nots and everything in between. © Jenny Jackson 2022 (P) Penguin Audio 2022"
