<br/><br/> Flatley argues that embracing melancholy can be a road back to contact with others and can lead people to an invigorated relationship with the world around them. He demonstrates that a seemingly disparate set of modernist writers and thinkers showed how aesthetic activity can give us the means to comprehend and change our relation to loss.
