Minnesota novelist delves into pandemic grief

Minneapolis author Sequoia Nagamatsu began working on "How High We Go in the Dark" a decade ago to explore different approaches to grief and grieving. He later added a thread about a global pandemic. He admits he was concerned when the publication date of the book aligned with an actual pandemic, but believes his wide-ranging story offers hope and possibility.
