Since he lives in Chelsea and works on Broadway, that’s what most of it is about. The stories are short (sometimes a single paragraph), but they cover a lot of territory, because they are deeply personal. They are not so much the presentation of a scene or of a person, but Greenberg’s perception of that scene or person, which is a very different narrative. What he notices, and how he values it, is a unique angle for the story and the book. How he navigates it all is revealing in another dimension. Sometimes the stories connect, sometimes the same friends show up in later stories, and at the end, two of his best friends meet for an evening at his place. It’s all very tight in Greenberg’s New York.My favorite is a two page piece called Opinions. It is pure, vintage Robert Benchley, striking the perfect note of Man thinking outside his little box, trying to master his own world, and second-guessing himself to a standstill. It is a small gem, highly polished.Another very fine story is Greenberg’s appreciation of his friend Jill Clayburgh. It’s a side of her we never saw, and it’s worth knowing.There are honest human insights too. After all, Greenberg is first and foremost a playwright. I particularly liked this one of a friend who died young: “On a single afternoon, she made me feel that life in the city could be off the cuff, and abundant. It hasn’t turned out like that. It never does.”Going forward, I will look at Richard Greenberg plays very differently.David Wineberg --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/63980762-rules-for-others-to-live-by-hardcover-4-oct-2016](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/63980762-rules-for-others-to-live-by-hardcover-4-oct-2016) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
