3 words to describe this book: raw, eccentric, challenging

Here I Am is about a Jewish-American family with different generational crises. It’s about finding identity - and that’s about all I want to say :) you’ll either love it or hate it. 

I would highly recommend the audiobook over a print copy (also does Irv sound like Larry David to anyone else??)
