So long, see you tomorrow : a novel

On a winter morning in the 1920s, a shot rings out on a farm in rural Illinois. A man named Lloyd Wilson has been killed. And the tenuous friendship between two lonely teenagers - one privileged yet neglected, the other a troubled farm boy - has been shattered. Fifty years later, one of those boys - now a grown man - tries to reconstruct the events that led up to the murder. In doing so, he is inevitably drawn back to his lost friend Cletus, who had the misfortune of being the son of Wilson's killer and who in the months before witnessed things that Maxwell's narrator can only guess at.

  • "Dans l'Illinois au début des années 20, Cletus et William sont amis, jusqu'au jour où le père du premier tue d'un coup de fusil le père du second. Quelques années plus tard, ils se croisent dans les couloirs du lycée, mais n'échangent aucun mot. Cinquante ans plus tard, ce silence hante William."
  • "CLASSIC FICTION. With an introduction by Ann Patchett. The story of a murder is framed by the story of a brief friendship between two young boys. One, the narrator, is coping with the recent death of his mother; the other, a farm boy, witnesses his parents and a friend in scenes he neither understands nor wishes to. The narrative goes into his past and explores the events that destroyed the lives of his parents."
