“Thirty Years Hence” by Denise Beck-Clark Selected for Film Adaptation by DreamBooks Media Professionals
DreamBooks Media Professionals has announced that they have officially selected Thirty Years Hence by Denise Beck-Clark for an upcoming Book-to-Film Adaptation project, spotlighting the novel’s compelling narrative and its resonant portrayal of emotional healing and human connection. Known for their commitment to discovering impactful stories that translate meaningfully to the screen, DreamBooks Media’s choice marks a pivotal moment for this psychologically layered and socially reflective novel.
Thirty Years Hence unfolds in New York City during 1973, following the parallel stories of two women—Michelle Cooper, a 23-year-old searching for meaning amidst personal turmoil, and Ida Birnbaum, a middle-aged Holocaust survivor navigating a profound midlife crisis. Both characters confront their inner demons and external challenges against a vividly depicted urban backdrop shaped by post-Vietnam disillusionment, countercultural echoes, and personal despair.
As the characters spiral through moments of hedonism and self-destruction, they find grounding in their evolving friendship and in the experimental Rogen Treatment Program, a fictional therapeutic modality inspired by real-life 1970s human potential movements like est and LifeSpring. The RTP compels participants to relive elements of the Holocaust—an unsettling yet transformative experience intended to facilitate psychological breakthroughs. Through this journey, each individual confronts their history, prejudice, trauma, and capacity for growth.
Author Denise Beck-Clark, a psychotherapist and longtime writer, masterfully blends her psychological expertise with vivid storytelling. The novel has received critical acclaim for its bold exploration of trauma, addiction, and human complexity. The San Francisco Review describes it as “a powerful and heart-rending story of survival, acceptance, and belonging,” while the Manhattan Book Review praises Beck-Clark for “spinning a true-to-life tale of Holocaust memory, trauma, and recovery.” The Kirkus Review highlights the novel’s layered characters and provocative narrative turns, noting its balance of emotional depth and sharp cultural insight.
The novel’s rich ensemble of characters—including idealists, survivors, and the spiritually curious—intertwine to form a tapestry of life in one of America’s most culturally transformative decades.
The book is already available on Amazon and other major platforms such as Barnes & Noble and Goodreads.
