About this Item
Paperback. What happens when life as you know it unravels, and you're left with nothing but yourself to rediscover? Is This Thing On is the compelling and heartwarming story of Alex and Tess Novak, a couple who, after years of building a life together, find themselves navigating the uncharted waters of a midlife crisis, rediscovery, and unexpected transformation. Through humor, heartbreak, and a deep dive into what it truly means to love and live authentically, this story is a profound exploration of what it means to begin again. Alex Novak, once defined by his career and family roles, suddenly finds himself stepping onto the stage of stand-up comedy-an unexpected outlet for his fears, regrets, and the laughter that hides beneath it all. Meanwhile, Tess, a former Olympic volleyball star turned devoted mother and wife, begins to reconnect with the passions she sacrificed in the name of family. Both must face the daunting question of who they are without the labels of spouse, parent, and partner. Their paths collide in the most unexpected of places-on a comedy stage where vulnerability becomes their strongest performance. Through raw, emotional moments and laughter that cuts through the pain, Is This Thing On reminds us that midlife doesn't have to be a crisis-it can be a turning point. It's about learning to embrace the journey of change, shedding old identities, and finding the courage to step into new beginnings. Alex and Tess's emotional transformation will resonate deeply with anyone who's ever questioned their path, been faced with an unexpected life change, or wondered what comes next in the quest for self-discovery. Their story is a testament to the power of reinvention, and the healing that comes from laughter, love, and embracing what comes after life's toughest challenges. Are you ready to rediscover what it means to love, laugh, and live with intention? Is This Thing On is more than a memoir of two lives in transition-it's an invitation to reflect on your own path of growth and reinvention. Join Alex and Tess on their heartfelt journey and explore how, sometimes, the best way to move forward is to simply step up to the mic.
