| Summary: | Following the news of a long-past lover's death, In the Days That Followed grapples with the sudden knowledge of the existence of a stillborn child conceived out of wedlock and never named, and never spoken of after the relationship had ended. How do you miss someone who you never even knew? It is within this distillation of loss, of distance and grief, that allows us to form the unborn, the unnamed, the absent parts of ourselves into the language, into the landscape and give them a fleeting figure. By giving them a voice and a shadow, a gesture of acknowledgment, we can give a sweet farewell from the earth, from our past and from their future they were never granted. |
