What We Write About When We Write About Grief, Part Two

Where joy most revels, grief doth most lament.
Grief joys, joy grieves, on slender accident.
—William Shakespeare, Hamlet
In last month’s post (“ What We Write About When We Write About Grief ”), I provided examples of authors depicting grief in three different genres: fiction, poetry, and memoir.
Most of the comments responding to the post focused on how credible or authentic (or not) the various excerpts were in describing what it felt like to grieve.

“I’d rather spend time with the living.” #julianbarnes #nothingtobefrightenedof

Back in March BBC4 showed a couple of interviews with Julian Barnes, an author whose work I love and who I've been reading since my twenties. One was a repeat of an older programme and one a new interview, and they reminded me that I still have some of his books on the TBR. I was in the mood for some non-fiction, and so I decided I would take a look at his…

I'm sure the reason that I've held off on this novel has nothing whatsoever to do with its unreliable narrator whose aging memory contorts his sense of self!

#JulianBarnes I like to read old ones before recent ones when I discover an author. Liked the mixture, history, mythology, judeo-christian cultural heritage, something about current events (still breathtakingly accurate the bit about terrorism, Israel and Palestine), some philosophy, some dreaming, some loving, all parts in different text styles and types, it was popular to playfully explain past and present in those days (1989) when we still had a future. #bookstodon #books #2025reads

just finished "departure(s)" by julian barnes. first book of his that made me cry. it's his literary goodbye.

Julian Barnes blickt zurück – auf das Schreiben, das Erinnern und das Abschiednehmen. Abschied(e) ist ein ruhiges, kluges Buch über Sterblichkeit, Freundschaft und Identität.

“Abschied(e)” von Julian Barnes – Von Knut Cordsen und Thomas David

Über den Tod hat Julian Barnes, der am 19. Januar seinen 80. Geburtstag feiert, schon oft geschrieben. Das nahende Ende beschäftigt den britischen Schriftsteller auch in seinem neuen Buch “Abschied(e)”.

Julian Barnesʼ Hausheiliger ist bekanntlich Gustave Flaubert. Er zitiert den Franzosen gern mit dem Satz, man müsse im Leben alles erlernen, vom Sprechen bis zum Sterben. Nur könnten wir Letzteres – das Sterben – eben nicht so recht üben. 2020, kurz vor dem ersten Lockdown, wurde bei Julian Barnes eine seltene Form von Blutkrebs diagnostiziert: nicht direkt letal, aber auf längere Sicht eine Krankheit zum Tode. Davon erzählt der Brite in seinem neuen und definitiv letzten Buch, mit dem er Abschied nimmt von der literarischen Bühne. Er nennt es seinen “offiziellen Abgesang”.

Thomas David hat Barnes mehr als zwei Jahrzehnte lang als Leser begleitet und eine Reihe von Gesprächen mit ihm geführt. Er erinnert sich  an ihre Begegnungen und nimmt seinerseits Abschied vom großen Erzähler. – WDR3, Kulturfeature

“…freedom consists in conforming to the will of the majority.” #theporcupine #julianbarnes

Despite being surrounded by endless choices when it comes to picking my new book, there are times when I hover a bit, not quite sure what I actually want to read next. Having lots of options can be overwhelming occasionally, and I felt like that recently. I'm currently making my way through "The Alienation Effect" by Owen Hatherley, which is a huge chunkster sitting next to my…

“…a sane man in a demented age.” #julianbarnes #themanintheredcoat

Well, once again I am faced with a book festooned with post-it notes which I absolutely loved and have no idea how to write about - this is becoming a habit! 🤣 The work in question is by a favourite author, although it's a book of his I only picked up recently - "The Man in the Red Coat" by Julian Barnes…

…re-reading is one of the pleasures – and necessities – of age.” #julianbarnes #changingmymind @NottingHillEds

One author I always find a joy to encounter is Julian Barnes; I've read several of his books (some back in the 1980s, when he first began to become a more well-known name), but he's been so prolific over the years that I still have many titles with which to catch up. However, I've become more and more attracted to his non-fiction; so when I heard that one of…

Eating a lunchtime omelette and toast wasn't the best companion to starting a hardback #ElizabethFinch by #JulianBarnes. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the eight pages I managed to read before I ought to return to my desk.
