In his book "Geometry of Grief: Reflections on Mathematics, Loss, and Life," mathematician Michael Frame explores the fractal nature of grief and its role in our understanding and experience of loss. He argues that grief is a response to irreversible loss that carries great emotional weight and uncovers a transcendent aspect of the world. Frame believes that readjustment after loss involves deliberate attention and narrative construction, as well as an openness to different perspectives. Beauty, he suggests, can bridge the gap between grief and geometry, providing a glimpse into something deeper.
