Powerful gusts from family fission sweep us into The Lost Son. Having decided men's problems are too far gone for help, Ellen has left Redmond, her lover of twelve years, and Nick, her sixteen-year-old son, and struck out on her own. Redmond was a wide spot in the road, Ellen repeats to herself, nothing more. Leaving him was as clean a getaway as a getaway gets. On the other hand, what she should say to her son is beyond her, so when she calls up and Nick answers, silence does the talking.
