A brilliant writer confronts grief and transforms it into art, in a book of surprising beauty and love.

Yiyun Li meets life's deepest sorrows as she imagines a conversation between a mother and child in a timeless world. Composed in the months after she lost a child to suicide, Where Reasons End trespasses into the space between life and death as mother and child talk, free from old images and narratives.

Advance praise for Where Reasons End
«The most intelligent, insightful, heart-wrenching…

    I always imagine writing is for people who don’t want to feel or don’t know how to.

    You see, this is your problem. When you don’t have an expert command of adjectives, you don’t know how you feel.
