The Management of Grief: Introduction

Bharati Mukherjee's story "The Management of Grief" tells the story of an Indian woman living in Canada whose husband and two sons are killed in a plane explosion. Through a process of deciding what parts of her culture to accept or reject and what parts of Western culture to adopt or reject, she works past her grief and begins rebuilding her life.

Mukherjee published the story in The Middleman and Other Stories in 1988, and the collection of short stories about immigrant experiences in the West won the National Book Critics Circle Award for fiction that year. "The Management of Grief" is unique in the collection because it is the only story about immigrants in Canada.

Based on the 1985 terrorist bombing of an Air India jet occupied mainly by Indo-Canadians (Indian immigrants living in Canada)—about which Mukherjee and her husband wrote the nonfiction book The Sorrow and the Terror—"The Management of Grief" is part of Mukherjee's effort to understand and communicate that catastrophe and its meaning.

Culture gives a person her primary tools and strategies for dealing with such universal human experiences as grief, and the title of the story encapsulates its basic themes. It is a story about the kind of grief that any human experiences, but it highlights the difficulties faced by immigrants in another country, namely, how to negotiate conflicting cultural demands and expectations, yet still draw on the strengths of culture. Such a theme carries impact for the non-immigrant, too, who might want the freedom to reject inhumane elements of her own culture

The Management of Grief Summary

Mukherjee's "The Management of Grief" opens as the protagonist Shaila Bhave watches women moving around her kitchen quietly. The mood is somber for only the day before, Bhave's husband and two sons were killed in a plane explosion. Shaila talks with Dr. and Mrs. Sharma. One of the Sharma sons reports to them that officials are still uncertain about the explosion, "saying it could be an accident or a terrorist bomb." Most of the Indians there suspect that the plane was destroyed by a Sikh bomb. Shaila sits on the stairs talking with Kusum, her neighbor whose husband and daughter also died on the plane. Shaila expresses regret that traditional propriety kept her from telling her husband she loved him, and Kusum consoles her. Kusum's second daughter, Pam, interrupts the two. She wants her mother to look presentable for a reporter who is coming. Kusum and Pam fight bitterly, and Mrs. Sharma tries unsuccessfully to calm Pam down.

The scene shifts to what seems to be the next day, in Shaila's house. A government social worker named Judith Templeton visits and wants her to help provide services to the rest of the Indian community affected by the plane explosion. Judith, who is having difficulty because she lacks understanding of Indian culture and language, approves of Shaila's calm coping with the tragedy and wants to use her as an example. Though Shaila is hesitant because she questions her own calmness, she gives Judith permission to call her again after her trip.

Four days after the news of the explosion, Shaila is on the coast of Ireland looking out at the sea where the airplane went down. She and many others have come to Ireland to identify the bodies of their relatives. She talks with Kusum, who relates her swami's advice for coping with the grief. The two women talk indirectly of suicide. Shaila looks for sources of hope.Mukherjee's "The Management of Grief" opens as the protagonist Shaila Bhave watches women moving around her kitchen quietly.
