I’ve thought of Ms. Braverman often since I was in a writing group she led about four years ago at Op.Cit. Books in Santa Fe. I was way over my head–my writing style is nothing like the kind of writing she pushed the group to create–kind of like worshiping a star you know you’ll never touch, recognizing its awesome power and presence. A woman totally dedicated to her muse. I’m saddened to learn of her passing. I hope she has someone who can get her remaining unpublished work out into the world. The publishing world didn’t fully appreciate her genius–yes, I think she needs to be recognized as a literary genius.
