Much has been written about life&#x27;s midlife surprises and disappointments, but Gurwitch puts a singularly and really funny voice to her experience, experience to which we can all relate. Buying a new couch becomes an obsessive endeavor. Navigating financial downward spiral and craving luxury pillows is all-consuming. And being middle aged, her advantage and her, well, occasional disadvantage. Gurwitch&#x27;s new terrific book, You&#x27;re Leaving When?, is as much a brilliantly funny cautionary tale about life&#x27;s uncertainties as it is a record of our times. Amidst divorce and family revelations, terrifying financial struggles, deaths of parents, COVID&#x27;s punishing pummels on her comedy tours, Gurwitch gifts us her relentless search for joy, a bit of luxury, and enormous laughs. Cynthia d&#x27;Aprix Sweeney wrote her first novel, The Nest, several years ago, and it became an enduring and knock-out bestseller. Not only that, it was named a Best Book of 2016 by a slew of respectable institutions, including The Washington Post, NPR, Refinery29, and many others. In her highly anticipated new novel, Good Company, Sweeney again tells a great story about family, and the incidents that can pierce us, and put us back together again.
