Soon to be a major motion picture starring Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, and Adam Driver The death of Judd Foxman's father marks the first time that the entire Foxman clan has congregated in years. There is, however, one conspicuous absence: Judd's wife, Jen, whose affair with his radioshockjock boss has recently become painfully public. Simultaneously mourning the demise of his father and his marriage, Judd joins his dysfunctional family as they reluctantly sit shivaand spend seven days and nights under the same roof. The week quickly spins out of control as longstanding grudges resurface, secrets are revealed and old passions are reawakened. Then Jen delivers the clincher: she's pregnant. This Is Where I Leave You is Jonathan Tropper's (One Last Thing Before I Go) most accomplished work to date, and a riotously funny, emotionally raw novel about love, marriage, divorce, family, and the ties that bindwhether we like it or not.

Poignant and Funny
Who knew relationship issues could be so funny? Somehow Tropper pulls it off. He does better with the male characters, but all in all an enjoyable read.

A MUST READ
This book was recommended to me. It is a wonderful, funny quick read. It totally sterotypes, in a good way, the jewish family and all of its dynamics.
