Description
Andre Dubus III’s first novel in a decade is a masterpiece of thrilling tension and heartrending empathy. Few writers can enter their characters so completely or evoke their lives as viscerally as Andre Dubus III. In this deeply compelling new novel, a father, estranged for the worst of reasons, is driven to seek out the daughter he has not seen in decades.
Daniel Ahearn lives a quiet, solitary existence in a seaside New England town. Forty years ago, following a shocking act of impulsive violence on his part, his daughter, Susan, was ripped from his arms by police.
Now in her 40s, Susan still suffers from the trauma of a night she doesn’t remember, as she struggles to feel settled, to love a man, and create something that lasts. Lois, her maternal grandmother who raised her, tries to find peace in her antique shop in a quaint Florida town but cannot escape her own anger, bitterness, and fear.
Cathartic, affirming, and steeped in the empathy and precise observations of character for which Dubus is celebrated, Gone so Long explores how the wounds of the past afflict the people we become and probes the limits of recovery and absolution.

Sad story.
I had to pump up the speed (2.5X), and that really improved the narration. Pick up if you are looking for a slow burning story.

As good as it gets
Andre Dubus III is my favourite author.
His characters are so painfully authentic and captivating: they are flawed people doing their best to cope with the chaos of their lives.
I think I like Dubus so much because beauty is always so inexplicit in his works. He never hands it to you. The reader must look for beautiful things amidst the sorrow that comes with living. If that is not a lesson, I am not sure what is.
Thank you, Mr. Dubus. You have helped me grow up a lot over the years.
