Obits. - Paperback
by T. Liem (Author)
WINNER OF THE 2019 GERALD LAMPERT MEMORIAL AWARD
In Obits. a speaker tries and fails to write obituaries for those whose memorials are missing, those who are represented only as statistics. She considers victims of mass deaths, fictional characters, and her own aunt, asking what does it mean to be an 'I' mourning a 'you' when both have been othered? Centring vulnerability, the various answers to this question pass through trauma, depression, and the experience of being a mixed-race queer woman.Author Biography
