Darkly comic, but in a good way

I laughed, I recoiled, I related, I even had a wee cry. Jonathan Tropper's This Is Where I Leave You is a week in the roller coaster life of Judd Foxman. Judd is plagued by his midlife crisis and a variety of other rapidly eroding life situations. Tropper's insights on the modern man and woman are keen and hilarious. This is not a book for the easily offended or the prudish. It is a humorous tale with apt descriptions that make you cheer for Judd and his travails.
