Where Reasons End |
A 16-year-old boy takes his life. His mother - the author of this book - turns to writing pages of imagined conversations with her son as she struggles to understand his terrible choice. Brave and consoling, the novel captures the complexity of parent/child relationships in a form that is unsentimental and insightful. The delicate balance between intellect and emotion elevates this work to the realm of a masterpiece. (Sharron Calkins - bwl 104 Spring 2022) |
