读过《Notes on Grief》

好羡慕作者有这样一个父亲怀念，我爸对我的影响基本上停在了十岁，现在的生活已经跟他完全无关了。也很难想象有哪个亲人去世我会感到伤心的。
引用一下 #HalfOfAYellowSun 里的句子：
Grief was the celebration of love, those who could feel real grief were lucky to have loved.
A personal and powerful essay on loss from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the bestselling author of Americanah and Half of a Yellow Sun. 'Grief is a cruel kind of education. You learn how ungentle mourning can be, how full of anger. You learn how glib condolences can feel. You learn how much grief is about language, the failure of language and the grasping for language' On 10 June 2020, the scholar James Nwoye Adichie died suddenly in Nigeria. In this tender and powerful essay, expanded from the original New Yorker text, his daughter, a self-confessed daddy's girl, remembers her beloved father. Notes on Grief is at once a tribute to a long life of grace and wisdom, the story of a daughter's fierce love for a parent, and a revealing examination of the layers of loss and the nature of grief.
A fight broke out under the kuka tree, and Olanna heard a child scream at another in Igbo, “Your mother's pussy!”
