Three Lives in New York

Beth’s debut novel takes place in February 1977, when workers at a Manhattan real estate company endure a tumultuous day that ends with peace for some, but for others, fear.

“What a horrible man, Natalie thought. She should have run after him to the elevator, but first she looked in the envelope. There were a lot of bills. She counted them: 15 $100 bills in an envelope. How wonderful, she thought, trembling. She might start digging herself out of the mess. ” – from Three Lives in New York

Praise for Three Lives in New York

“Three Lives in New York is a triumph! I love the setting, the treatment of the Bronx and outer boroughs more generally, your wizardry in writing about characters of different backgrounds, the touching love story between Gartner and Dorie, Natalie’s anxiety, and the Max Arnold story—I adored Max.”

“I was surprised by the tears in my eyes when I finished your book. It's excellent. It's such good writing that shows a slice of interconnected New York life, and I particularly liked the cabbies in each section. Quite an achievement to flesh out a whole story and have the different parts dovetail so well. And to have such an atmospheric feel of the real estate company, the streets of Manhattan (and the Bronx) and the lights and bridges of NYC.”
