Abstract
ABSTRACT In the context of a deadly pandemic, we are scrambling to learn how to mourn mass death, how to fulfil our collective responsibility to the dead, responsibility of remembrance. A sense of urgency is demanding me to connect my grief to the grief of others (my grief over the death of people I didn’t know, people who were strangers to me), to connect my desiderium to that of others. It is within this context that I engage with Sara Ahmed’s Strange Encounters and composed this piece which is all over the place like myself. As a result, the aspects of the book that retained my attention and on which I dwell bear the imprint and bias of my on-going grieving, exhaustion, and dislocation.
