The sorrow proper / Lindsey Drager. Ann Arbor, MI : Dzanc Books, 2015. 148 pages ; 22 cm. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier A group of aging librarians must decide whether to fight or flee from the end of print and the rise of electronic publication, while the parents of a young girl who died in front of the library struggle with their role in her loss. Anchored by the transposed stories of a photographer and his deaf mathematician lover, each mourning the other's death, The Sorrow Proper illustrated how humans of all relations--lovers, parents, colleagues--cope with and challenge social "progress," a mechanism that requires we ignore, and ultimately forget, the residual in order to make room for the new, to tell a story that resists "The End.". 20150714.
