Rings with authenticity and evokes the texture of working-class lives. . . . This is a compassionate and wonderful novel., Dubus evokes a dazzlingpalette of emotions as he skillfully unpacks the psychological tensions betweenremorse and guilt, fear and forgiveness, anger and love. Susan, Daniel, andLois are fully realized and authentic characters who live with pain andheartache while struggling to fill the tremendous void created by the tragedy.Heartrending yet unsentimental, this powerful testament to the human spiritasks what it means to atone for the unforgivable and to empathize with thebroken., Well, he's done it again, hasn't he? What a gorgeous heartbreaker of a book. Dubus's compassion is unsentimental and unblinking, total and unwavering. That and sheer artistry makes Gone So Long dark and radiant, beautiful and never to be forgotten., Dubus is in his gritty wheelhouse, exploring thequestion of how we live with our mistakes and whether we can ever stop addingto them., A dark and exquisitely crafted novel that views parental relationships as both a form of inherited violence and redemptive empathy. , I tore through this haunting novel about people driven by pain beyond the reach of love and forgiveness, and the roads they use as they seek their way back. It hits just the right note at the end, and I'll be thinking about Susan a long time. A hell of a read., Gone So Long is an astonishment. I love this book so much, the humanity in it. I love every single person in it, they are so real, these people--I know them and love them all. I wept for them, I did. Dubus is just so good and real and true, he doesn't pull one sentimental punch the whole time--extraordinary. I thought about those people as I was walking down the sidewalk, and they are inside me as well, not just thoughts that go by. I love this book to pieces.

Synopsis
Andre Dubus III's first novel in a decade is a masterpiece of thrilling tension and heartrending empathy. For as long as she can remember, Susan Dunn has been trying to escape. But peace and happiness have always eluded her¯now an adjunct professor, she is tortured by the novel she cannot finish, and a lack of feeling toward a husband who loves her. Just when she's ready to abandon everything to try again, she receives a letter that forces her to reckon with the trauma that first sent her running: her mother's murder at the hands of her father, Daniel Ahearn, forty years ago. Daniel, out of prison and living a spartan life, has written Susan with his dying wish: to see her for the first time since a policeman tore her from his arms. But does she want to see him, and confront the reason he's been gone so long? What could Daniel possibly offer the daughter he robbed of a family? As the story moves toward a possible reunion, it pulses with emotion, probing the limits of our capacity to forgive. Like Dubus's award-winning Townie and House of Sand and Fog , Gone So Long is a profound exploration of the struggle between our best intentions and most mercurial desires., 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 forties, 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.
