ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Mary Jane by Jessica Anya Blau tells the story of a fourteen-year-old girl named Mary .J. during the summer of 1975. She takes a job as a nanny for the unconventional Cone family, whose home is a stark contrast to her own. While working for them, she becomes entangled with the family's houseguests, a rock star named Jimmy and his movie star wife, Sheba. Mary .J.'s summer is filled with unexpected experiences, forcing her to question her upbringing and challenge societal norms. She navigates complex relationships, witnesses addiction, and finds herself in a world where the lines between right and wrong become blurred. The story explores themes of self-discovery, the nature of love and acceptance, and the impact of unconventional relationships. The novel emphasizes the importance of personal growth and finding one's own voice amidst a chaotic world.
