Harvard Divinity School presents The Weather Report Series: The Climate of Grief with Victoria Chang and Terry Tempest Williams
October 25, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm EDT
Harvard Divinity School presents The Weather Report Series: The Climate of Grief with Victoria Chang and Terry Tempest Williams at 7 pm EST.
From the organizers:
“Victoria Chang writes in her New York Times Notable Book of 2020, Obit, “I always knew that grief was something I could smell. But I didn’t know that it’s not actually a noun but a verb. That it moves.” After the deaths of her parents, she refused to write elegies; instead, Chang wrote poetic obituaries of the beautiful, broken world that surrounds her (many see them as love letters). How does poetry illuminate this time of uncertainty? How do we embrace grief and not look away from all that is breaking our hearts? What we thought was a pause is now a place, and grief is part of this place.”
