An Amazon Best Book of August 2016: In his spellbinding novel, Tim Murphy crafts a tale that is as ambitious as it is focused, sprawling as it is intimate, and as warm-hearted as it is gritty. The story revolves around the Christodora, an East Village apartment building whose tenants bear witness to the ever changing city. From the devastation of the 1980s AIDS epidemic to the influx of drug addicts and alcoholics to the transformation of boho artists to yuppie ones, Jared and Milly and their adopted son Mateo grapple with their shifting neighborhood and the unforgettable events of the past that will forever define their future. Told through multiple narrators and moving back and forth through the decades, Christodora is a page-turning epic that crackles with life – in all of its messy, addictive, artistic glory. --Al Woodworth, The Amazon Book Review
