Thirty Years Hence is a story of two women in NYC in 1973: Michelle Cooper, age twenty-three, is despairing and without direction, barely surviving the turbulent household of her parents and her adolescent foray into the Sixties hippiedom. Forty-something Ida Birnbaum is a Queens, NY wife and mother, and survivor of Auschwitz concentration camp.
Like many folks during the so-called Me Decade, Michelle and Ida indulge in hedonistic and self-destructive activities and must then deal with the consequences. They each turn for support to their evolving friendship and characters, such as Theo, an idealistic young immigrant working for a telephone prayer service run by Charles, another Holocaust survivor and self-fashioned spiritual guru.
The characters in Denises novel seek psychological healing via another of Charles creations. The Rogen Treatment Program is a unique process wherein participants experience the Holocaust and, through a kind of aversion therapy, conquer their respective individual demons.
Thirty Years Hence is an evocative and deeply moving narrative that explores the themes of survival, acceptance, and the quest for belonging. Through its rich storytelling, it delves into the struggles and triumphs of characters as they navigate a world filled with challenges, ultimately highlighting the resilience of the human spirit and the profound connections that shape human lives.
