Praise For The Disappeared
“[A] masterful novel of meetings, partings and cross-cultural love ... Echlin’s storytelling, shifting continents and years in a paragraph, gathers much of its pace and grace equally from her lyrical prose ... The book, which can be read in a single sitting, builds toward a complex expression of annihilating loss and eternal love that is best experienced, in a sense, like the final act of a tragic play: as something inevitable and beyond the calculations of reason.”
—The Globe and Mail
“A beautiful elegy about two lovers who struggle to overcome the betrayal of their families and their fellow man ... infused with wonder.” —The Winnipeg Free Press
