It would be comforting, as Scott muses near the novel's close, to know the whole truth, to wrap the story up in a tidy little bow. "We Disappear" is more honest, and thus more troubling, for it reflects the stark knowledge that truth is only an amalgam of experience, a collection of individual shards that don't coalesce into a pleasing whole.
