Lily Meyersohn’s Exit Interview with My Grandmother is a rumination on young adulthood, through the prism of her relationship with her 92-year-old grandmother.
At once profoundly personal and far-reaching, Exit Interview with My Grandmother serves as a meditation on the beginning of a young woman’s life and the series of questions that arise from examining love, loss, family, memory, and death. Moving between cities and centuries, Meyersohn probes her family's Jewish history and her grandparents' relationships in part to decipher her own young queer relationships, but also to examine how we ought to behave in the face of a world riddled with uncertainty and doubt.
Comprising a personal narrative and an intimate, recorded conversation with her grandmother, Meyersohn’s essay confronts what it means for something to begin, what it means for something to end, and what we should hold onto along the way.

Not what I was expecting

But, still, I was pleasantly surprised to find the 23-year-old granddaughter to be a masterful presenter as well. Lily Meyersohn's own wisdom shines through, despite little experience in life.
At the start I wanted hear more from the Grandmother, and less of the ruminations of the young author. But as the presentation moved along I came to see that the author was a stand in for every young person who KNOWS she doesn't yet KNOW much about life. Who is struggling to believe in their own value and ideas, yet feels like a weak copy. Lily Meyersohn is not a weak copy. She is someone to watch -- and listen to.
