eBook Description: International bestseller Jonathan Tropper joins Dutton with the book his fans in the trade have been waiting for him to write: an uproarious, sophisticated, and deeply moving breakout novel. Those who have already discovered Jonathan Tropper have called his novels hilarious, but emotion-packed,1 fantastically funny,2 surprisingly moving,3 and utterly magnificent.4 With his Dutton debut, Tropper has delivered a novel of true sophistication, at once light of touch and with a real sense of humor, without sacrificing a depth of character and raw emotion reminiscent of the early work of John Irving and Michael Chabon. This Is Where I Leave You opens with the death of Judd Foxmans father, an event that marks the first time in a decade that the entire Foxman familyincluding Judds mother, brothers, and sisterhave been together in the same house for an extended period. Conspicuously absent: Judds wife, Jen, whose fourteen-month affair with Judds radio-shock-jock boss has recently become painfully public. The typical Foxman family gathering ends with car doors slamming and tires screeching as various factions scatter to nurse their resentments in private. But this time around, the Foxmans reluctantly submit to their fathers dying request: to spend the seven days following the funeral together. In the same house. Like a real family. For Judd its a week-long opportunity to come to terms with his fathers death, his failed marriage, and to explain the mess his life has become to a never-ending parade of people he thought he might never see again. Which would be bad enough without the bomb Jen dropped the day Judds father died: Shes pregnant.
