註釋As international terrorism has become a commonplace phenomenon, a growing body of multiethnic short fiction has turned to depictions of loss and mourning. Characters in short stories and novellas deal with grief in ways that are appropriate to their gender as well as cultural and religious background. Indeed, as Western societies have become increasingly pluralistic, mortuary practices have altered.
