Both Ghosts We Knew and Heroes have any similarities relating to moving from the past, in Heroes by Robert Cormier, there were a lot about not being able to move from the past, one of the things that was how Francis went to war and his face got very deformed from that experience. I don't think that moment will ever leave his mind, I feel like that will stick with him till he dies because that was a very tragic moment and a big part of the book was about that time in his life. its hard to forget things, one word from someone bringing it up can make you go ballistic and just constantly think about it. Sometimes someone dissent even have to bring it up, it might just be in the back of your head 24/7 haunting you and bringing you back to that experience.
