Secondhand: Essays

Abstract

"Secondhand" is a collection of linked essays that centers on the sudden death of the narrator's father in 2005, when she was 21. Each of the eight essays in the collection explores who her father was and the grief she and her family experienced after his death. All of the essays attempt to recreate and understand the father and the narrator's relationship with him from the various things, ideas, and stories he's left behind. The author has incorporated research from primary and secondary sources in her attempt to understand how it is we go about remembering, understanding, and recreating someone we have lost.
