Mesmerizing...this book and its conflicted apartment dwellers stayed with me long after I finished reading. -NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

Smart and absorbing...Nevo shows us life's complexities in a thoroughly satisfying read. -LIBRARY JOURNAL, Starred Review

Eshkol Nevo, in his astoundingly moving new book, Three Floors Up, brilliantly captures how the landscape of a marriage can become tenuous and dark while parents struggle with children who seem to need a little extra help. His three loosely interwoven stories take place in an upper-middle-class apartment building in Tel Aviv where neighbors observe one another quietly, grappling with their own growing desperation. -JERUSALEM POST

Nevo (Neuland, 2014, etc.) is a bestselling Israeli author, and his most recent book to be translated into English makes it easy to understand why. His writing is compelling...[he] is a funny, engaging writer. -KIRKUS REVIEWS

Israeli bestseller Nevo (Neuland) returns with a transporting novel about the furtive lives of three tenants in a suburban Tel Aviv apartment building...Nevo's narrators range from despicable to endearing, and he handles each with a sure hand, resulting in a multifaceted narrative that is easy to be carried away by. -PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

Best-selling Israeli novelist Nevo, his Hebrew fluidly translated by Sondra Silverston, cleverly infuses these quotidian albeit schadenfreude-inducing dramas with numerology (everything is in threes), Freudian analysis (the three floors up of id, ego, superego), the power of secrets (plus the greater threat of revenge), and the literary necessity for confessions (if there is no one to listen-there is no story). -BOOKLIST

The novella-length chapters offer a compelling critique of Israeli society. But Nevo's chief strength lies in his ability to fashion wonderfully relatable characters whose troubled voices, as well as mysterious and impulsive moods, render the work a page-turner...Nevo's talent for embedding telling character traits and cultural anecdotes through quick one-liners is perhaps his greatest asset. The prose sings in places, and Three Floors Up is difficult to put down. -JEWISH NEWS SERVICE
