Jackson JSON Deserialization with Root Element

I am having a question with Jackson that I think should be simple to solve, but it is killing me.

Let's say I have a java POJO class that looks like this (assume Getters and Setters for me):

class User {
    private String name;
    private Integer age;
}

And I want to deserialize JSON that looks like this into a User object:

{
  "user":
    {
      "name":"Sam Smith",
      "age":1
  }
}

Jackson is giving me issues because the User is not the first-level object in the JSON. I could obviously make a UserWrapper class that has a single User object and then deserialize using that but I know there must be a more elegant solution.

How should I do this?
