This was a random read to fulfill a reading challenge prompt, but I love that discovery process! What an interesting approach Chang has here. While dealing with the  loss of her parents, Chang wrote multiple obituaries. Not for her parents specifically, but for language, for time, for memory. There are two styles of poetry interspersed. I found more emotional connection to the short bursts of poetry in stylized lines, but the paragraph block obits gave me more to think about. A lot of the subject matter concerns Chang’s identity as a mother, which, as she’s losing her own mom, is a rich and complicated relationship dynamic to think about.
