Rudy and Frieda Cohen are married. He is a Holocaust survivor and a closet gay, and she is an angry woman. When Rudy dies at a relatively young age, their daughters, Nancy and Shelley are forced to deal with Frieda’s anger until they are old enough to escape it. A Reason to See You Again recounts these relationships from 1971 t0 2007 and how their feelings for each other effects each of them as well as their friends, lovers and children.

I enjoyed A Reason to See You Again. Although I am unlike the three main characters, I was able to relate to them. Jami Attenberg writes an interesting, quick read that takes no time to become interested in.
