ALTERNATE SIDE by Anna Quindlen (Fiction)
Audiobook available, read by Ellen Archer
Some days, Nora Nolan thinks that she and her husband, Charlie,
lead a charmed life --- except when there’s a crisis at work, a leak in
the roof at home, or a problem with their twins at college. And why not?
New York City was once Nora’s dream destination, and her clannish
dead-end block has become a safe harbor, a tranquil village amid the
urban craziness.

New York City was once Nora’s dream destination, and her clannish
dead-end block has become a safe harbor, a tranquil village amid the
urban craziness.
The owners watch one another’s children grow up. They use the same
handyman. They trade gossip and gripes, and they maneuver for the
ultimate status symbol: a spot in the block’s small parking lot. Then one
morning, Nora returns from her run to discover that a terrible incident has
shaken the neighborhood, and the enviable dead-end block turns into
a potent symbol of a divided city.
