Offering a series of poems rooted in the profoundly narrative yet
disorienting experience of losing a loved one, Prageeta Sharma, in
Grief Sequence, summons all of her resources in order to attempt any
semblance, poetic or otherwise, of clear sense in trauma. In doing so
she shows that grief, frustrating to logic and yet as real as any
experience we might know, is ripe for the sort of intellectual and
emotional processing of which poetry is most capable.
