So Long, See You Tomorrow by William Maxwell
On a winter morning in the 1920s, a man named Lloyd Wilson is killed in rural Illinois and the friendship between two lonely teenagers is shattered. 50 years later, one of those boys -- now a grown man -- tries to reconstruct the events that led up to the murder and is inevitably drawn back to his lost friend, who is the son of Wilson's killer. Maxwell's short novel is an evocative story of youth and loss.
