"The richly talented Tropper ("This Is Where I Leave You") has created an acerbic, middle-aged lost soul who will ultimately illuminate the reasons we stick around on this lopsided planet despite significant temptation to let it go. Readers will love Silver and want to throttle him in equal measure. Eminently quotable, hilariously funny, and emotionally draining, this arresting tour de force will entertain well after the book is done."

"Tropper is a master of the mid-life male coming-of-age story, and his latest is full of the charm and wit his readers cherish." - "Booklist"

"Tropper's characters are likably zany and fallible, and perhaps more important, funny. "One Last Thing Before I Go" is a poignant story about facing death and celebrating life, even when things seem well beyond repair." --Newsweek/The Daily Beast
