So, I finished Brodsky's book of essays on "Grief and Reason" - by around 3:00 AM. It was not. Putting me to sleep, as I had hoped it would. Then, I read the "Letter to Horace". It...

It is a collection of essays: "On Grief and Reason". I read the first one to my husband: "The Spoils of War". I found it comforting in the end because he gives ...
