"Down to Earth: textual transformations, mark making and grief" is a highly personal and subjective exploration of grief through a modified book. The author uses redaction, mark-making, and the insertion of new pages to create a non-linear narrative that reflects their own experience of grief. The book serves as a means of expressing emotions and facilitating "continuing bonds" with the deceased. It prompts discussions about grief and ultimately finds balance through connecting with the outside world and tending to one's own garden. [Extracted from the article] |
