It is a deeply personal story that unveils another side of Jobs from one of the people who knew him best. Walter Isaacson’s 2011 biography has sold almost 2 million copies Aaron Sorkin, who wrote the screenplay for the 2015 feature film Steve Jobs, told Business Insider “Lisa didn’t speak to Walter Isaacson when Walter was writing the book [Steve Jobs] because her father was alive at the time. But she was willing to speak to me. She was able to tell stories about her father that weren’t necessarily flattering stories, but she would tell the story and then show me how you could see he really did love her.” Not just an account of a difficult, distant father and his rocky relationship with his daughter, Small Fry also gives a vivid portrait of Palo Alto and the Bay Area during the first tech boom Will appeal to fans of memoirs like The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, This Boy’s Life by Tobias Wolff, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal by Jeanette Winterson and Wild by Cheryl Strayed Lisa Brennan-Jobs has been the focus of media attention and profiles already—from Jobs’ denial of paternity, to her mother’s exposing tell all of their early relationship, to the numerous films and accounts of Jobs’ life.
