A brilliant writer imagines a fictional conversation between a mother and the teenage son she lost to suicide. Yiyun Li confronts grief and transforms it into art, in a book of surprising beauty and love.
The narrator writes, "I had but one delusion, which I held onto with all my willpower: we once gave Nikolai a life of flesh and blood; and I'm doing it over again, this time by words."
Written in the months after the author lost a child to suicide and composed as a story cycle, this conversation between mother and child unfolds in a timeless world. Deeply intimate, poignant, and moving, these conversations portray the love and complexity in a relationship across generations, even as they capture the pain of sadness, longing, and loss.
In writing this book, Yiyun Li was inspired by a line from Proust's Remembrance of Things Past "Ideas come to us as the successors to griefs, and griefs, at the moment when they change into ideas, lose some part of their power to injure the heart; the transformation itself, even, for an instant, releases suddenly a little joy."
Meeting life's deepest sorrow with originality, precision and poise, Where Reasons End is suffused with intimacy, inescapable pain, and fierce love.

跟之前那本回忆录dear friend类似，同样是很沉重的一本书。这本是fiction，但不是传统意义上的fiction, 基本上以母子之间的对话为主。这本书阅读难度并不高，可能较短的时间就能读完，但是里面许多句子乍看简单可再一看会觉得很难懂。其实这本书算是作者很私人化的东西，换做是我，可能不想要出版出来。可是我的这种假设其实是很粗暴的，我无权对作者的选择妄加评论。
评分"I prefer a world made of the perishable, he said. Not the inevitable."
评分20200327更新，之前的评论通通抛掉，细读下来真的是难以名状的悲伤????我怎么会选择研究这本书呢，不该也不能，太敏感真的是很幸福也无比痛苦的一件事，这件事无人分享，不奢求任何人能懂，但也不可以就此顺从不可理解，善于遗忘的人生。Where reasons end其实写满了永远都“不够“的reason.
评分才疏学浅的我也是在读完这本书后才第一次知道，原来写作对于作家来说还可以起到充当“灵媒”角色的作用。这本书读起来像是治疗和二次伤害的矛盾结合体，我读完真是心情郁结（我不敢说我完全读懂了，以后会再读）。
评分看的过程中有很多话想说，但看完却觉得说什么都是多余的。这是一场永远不会结束的对话，是生者与死者，现实与想象，琐碎与精细，拥有与失去…理性永远无法抵达终点的对话。虽然词句简单，却蕴意丰富，精致好看。
