About
A group of fathers meets each morning at a local Tribeca coffee shop after walking their children to school. Over the course of a single school year, we are privy to their secrets, passions, and hopes, and learn of their dreams deferred as they confront harsh realities about ambition, wealth, and sex. And we meet their wives and children, who together with these men are discovering the hard truths and welcome surprises that accompany family, marriage, and real estate at midlife.

Reviews
"Starred Review. ...a compelling little universe that will matter even to outsiders who don't know that Lispenard Street will never be as glamorous as Greenwich Street."
Publishers Weekly
"The excellent Triburbia brings to mind such modern masters as Cheever, Updike, and Salter, but Greenfeld delivers his own wonderfully sharp-eyed take on recent American life...This is fiction of the first rank - intense, suspenseful, and relevant in the most urgent way."
Ben Fountain, author of Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk
"Pitch-perfect, dry, and smart, this is a vivid portrait of New York, our lives, our loves, and our hearts."
Susan Orlean, author of Rin Tin Tin and The Orchid Thief
