Small Fry

Small Fry

by Lisa Brennan-Jobs

In 'Small Fry,' Lisa Brennan-Jobs navigates the turbulent waters of her upbringing in the evolving landscape of Silicon Valley. Born to artist Chrisann Brennan and Steve Jobs, Lisa's early years were marked by her father's absence and later, an erratic presence filled with grand gestures amid emotional turmoil. Lisa's coming-of-age journey is laid bare as she moves in with Jobs, seeking the parental affection she yearns for. This candid memoir unfolds the complex tapestry of a family weaving through the threads of high expectations, personal growth, and the quest for a sense of belonging. Lisa's indomitable spirit and keen observations paint a vivid portrait of two worlds colliding—the bohemian ethos of her artistic mother and the burgeoning tech empire shaped by her prophetic father.
