 Where Things Come Back is an award winning 2011 novel by John Corey Whaley. In the remarkable, bizarre, and heart rendering summer before Cullen Witter's senior year of high school, everything he thinks he understands about his small and painfully dull Arkansas town vanishes. His cousin overdoses; his town becomes absurdly obsessed with the alleged reappearance of an extinct woodpecker; and most troubling of all, his sensitive, gifted fifteen-year-old brother, Gabriel, suddenly and inexplicably disappears.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })As Cullen navigates a summer of finding and losing love, holding his fragile family together, and muddling his way into adulthood, a young, disillusioned missionary in Africa searches for meaning wherever he can find it. And when those two stories collide, a surprising and harrowing climax emerges that is tinged with melancholy and regret, comedy and absurdity, and above all, hope.Don't overlook the analysis page!Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Tropes include:
