Andrew Porter: The Disappeared, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"A husband and wife hear a mysterious bump in the night. A father mourns the closeness he has lost with his son. A friendship with a married couple turns into a dangerous co-dependency. With gorgeous sensitivity, assurance, and a propulsive sense of menace, these stories center on disappearances both literal and figurative-lives and loves that are cut short, the vanishing of one's youthful self.
