Synopsis
Just after discovering his wife in flagrante with his boss, the loathsome hate-mongering host of a radio talk show, Judd Foxman must "sit shivah" (the week-long Jewish mourning period) for his dead father. Those seven days become a gauntlet of bad behavior and family dysfunction, including his lascivious mother's shameless flirtations, Judd's own indiscretions with his sister-in-law, and the arrival of his wife with the not-so-joyful news that she is pregnant. Jonathan Tropper's willfully vulgar THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU is a non-stop of barrage of awkward encounters, poor decisions, and slapstick sexual escapades.

Publisher's Note
From a internationally best-selling, critically acclaimed author of four novels that have been called moving, hilarious, tender, superb, smart, honest, sweet, deft, and magnificent comes this newest novel.

Industry reviews
"Tropper strikes an excellent balance between the family history and its present-day fallout, proving his ability to create touchingly human characters and a deliciously page-turning story."
 (05/18/2009)

"[A] magnificently funny family saga....It's a no-brainer that THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU has been snapped up for adaptation into a movie....But since the menschy soulfulness that infuses Tropper's writing may be this brimming novel's most delicate gift of all, I urge with all my heart and kishkes: Read this one! Read and weep with laughter."
 (08/14/2009)

"[T]his author's strong suit is wisecracks, the more irreverent the better.....Mr. Tropper's dialogue here is fast and fresh, his book also has ballast. The death of a father would seem to provide that automatically, but it takes a while for these characters to shed their flippancy and understand what has hit them."
 (08/12/2009)

"The emotions feel real and sometimes painfully raw, but Tropper spins them with laugh-out-loud and often absurd humor, keeping the overall tone optimistic."
 (08/13/2009)

"Tropper's new novel is artful and brilliant, filled with colorful narratives and witty dialogue....[He] offers a genuine portrayal of marriage, sibling rancor and the loss of a parent. The subject matter is at times dismal, but Tropper, author of four other novels, can find the funny in any situation."
 (09/15/2009)
