"Just Like That" tells the story of a woman living in New York who writes obituaries for a newspaper and resides in an elegant loft. She is happily married to a man involved in the New York art scene, which she views with ironic distance. Her narrative is deeply influenced by her identity as the daughter of Jewish parents who survived the Holocaust, a presence that lingers in her life, particularly in her loving yet complicated relationship with her father. The intertwining of past and present is a constant theme, and her profession—frequently attending the funerals of strangers—intensifies her awareness of life's transience and the fragility of happiness. This beautiful, intelligent, and poignant novel explores nothing less than the essence of life itself.
