Tom Barbash

The Dakota Winters (Ecco) is an evocative and wildly absorbing new novel about the Winters, a family living in New York City’s famed Dakota apartment building in the year leading up to John Lennon’s assassination. By turns hilarious and poignant, Tom Barbash’s new book is a family saga, a social novel, and a tale of a critical moment in the history of New York City and the country at large.
