How to Grieve

Jade Mark Capiñanes
3.84/5 (89 ratings)
Read Now Download Now
How do you deal with a broken heart? In typical Jade Mark Capiñanes fashion, How to Grieve offers helpful if sardonic advice that you should either take with a grain of salt or use as a menu of survival strategies for the next minute your world falls apart. Each story is a distillation of pain, beauty, ordinariness, and strangeness—each one a koan of heartbreak to contemplate as we stub our toes on the long, rocky road to healing.

— Anna Felicia C. Sanchez

How to Grieve is a story collection that understands the brevity of the form, the brevity of our lives—and of the relationships we hope—and often fail—to build. Jade Mark Capiñanes is a master at showing us that the root of our longings is that we've all been here before—here being that liminal space of inattention in between grieving and moving on. Here is a must-read manual to help us survive our present-day unreason, at the seeming impossibility of planning, of a future, of the future. You have to read this more than once because we probably need more than one reminder of our lives thus far to be fully alive again.

— Edgar Calabia Samar

Jade Mark Capiñanes presents an expansive view of life, punctuated by surreal humor, allusions that range from pop culture to concepts from classical philosophy, and sharp turns into poignant—at times sobering—insights. For all its brevity, this collection could be read like the most complex of novels. The more we read and reread a narrative, the more we discover something different about it. The more we understand our own lives and (lost) loves.
