A father mourns the closeness he has lost with his son. A friendship with a married couple turns into a dangerous codependency. 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. From San Antonio to Austin, from the clamor of a crowded restaurant to the cigarette at a lonely kitchen table, Andrew Porter captures each of these relationships mid-flight, every individual life punctuated by loss and beauty and need. \u003ci\u003eThe Disappeared\u003c\/i\u003e reaffirms the undeniable artistry of a contemporary master of the form.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47904425705630,"sku":"ING-9780593467411","price":26.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780593467411.jpg?v=1782452808","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780593467411","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
