LITCHFIELD BOOKS 2024 STAFF PICK⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
In this mesmerizing novel about Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, acclaimed author Dawn Tripp has crafted an intimate story of love and power, family and tragedy, loss and reinvention.
The world has divided my life into three:
Life with Jack
Life with Onassis
Life as a woman who goes to work because she wants to.
My life is all of these things, and it is none of these things.
They continue to miss what’s right in front of them. I love books.
I love the sea. I love horses. Children. Art. Ideas. History.
Beauty. Because beauty blows us open to wonder.
Even the beauty that breaks your heart.
Jackie is the story of a woman who forged a legacy out of grief and shaped history even as she was living it—a deeply private person with a nuanced, formidable intellect. It is the story of a love affair, a complicated marriage, and the fracturing of identity that comes in the wake of unthinkable violence. This spare, exquisite novel is a window into the world of a woman who led many different lives.
