Triburbia is a series of vignettes into the different and varied homes in TriBeCa. The story is told from the view points of husbands, wives, fathers, mothers, daughters and nannies. I enjoyed that the POV changed with each chapter and it wasn't a rehashing of previous events. Every story revolves around the community and the how the place influences the characters. ( ) I really wanted to like this more. After all, it's about contemporary downtown Manhattan... real estate porn. But the novel was more like interconnected short stories, and sometimes it wasn't clear who was who. Some characters were struggling, some raking it in, some committed to family, others not, good kids, mean kids, lots of casual drug use. Not awful, but it didn't grab me. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Triburbia draws the lives of Tribeca's various residents, uncovering the deep betrayals they've committed against themselves and each other. Thrown together by circumstance, a group of fathers meet each morning at a local coffee shop after walking their children to their exclusive school. Over the course of a single year, we learn about their dreams deferred, their secrets and mishaps, their passions and hopes, as they confront terrible truths about ambition, wealth, and sex.
