Literature and Fiction
You don’t have to look very hard at Drew Silver to see that
mistakes have been made. His fleeting fame as the drummer
for a one-hit wonder rock band is nearly a decade behind
him. He lives in the Versailles, an apartment building
filled almost exclusively with divorced men like him, and
makes a living playing in wedding bands. His ex-wife,
Denise, is about to marry a guy Silver can’t quite bring
himself to hate. And his Princeton-bound teenage daughter
Casey has just confided in him that she’s pregnant—because
Silver is the one she cares least about letting down.
So when he learns that his heart requires emergency,
lifesaving surgery, Silver makes the radical decision to
refuse the operation, choosing instead to use what little
time he has left to repair his relationship with Casey,
become a better man, and live in the moment, even if that
moment isn't destined to last very long. As his exasperated
family looks on, Silver grapples with the ultimate question
of whether or not his own life is worth saving.
With the wedding looming and both Silver and Casey in
crisis, this broken family struggles to come together, only
to risk damaging each other even more. One Last Thing Before
I Go is Jonathan Tropper at his funny, insightful,
heartbreaking best.
