[A] gem of a novel… With bite and humor, Battal explores how the wounds our parents inflict often derive from their own fragility and trauma and how with time our anger can transform into grace. A deeply powerful story.
—Marjan Kamali, New York Times bestselling author of The Lion Women of Tehran
A delicious ghost story, a satisfyingly complex and dark-edged family saga, and a moving, often funny, novel about love. I enjoyed it from beginning to end.
—Anjum Hasan, award-winning author of History's Angel
A thoughtful, complex exploration of art and womanhood.

[a] fascinating and rewarding book.
In 1992, just after the fall of the Soviet Union, a Ukrainian-American woman travels to Ukraine and boards a bus on an unlikely pilgrimage.
Ross maintains plenty of nerve-shredding tension and makes her lead's trauma palpable.
THE ENDED WORLD reminded me of Ursula LeGuin and Emily St John Mandel, with a touch of Tom Robbins and Salman Rushdie, blended with Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Cinematic, in the best way, meaning it does not try to be anything but what it is—gorgeous prose about this specific moment in time.
—Jennifer Silva Redmond
Thoroughly refreshing: an astute portrait of contemporary small-town America that's genuinely fun to read.
