The present paper is a study to bring out the nuances of the word trauma of death from different angles. It also endeavours to analyze the theme of the trauma of death in modern literature in general and Louise Glück's volume "Ararat".One of the most famous modern poets in America is Louise Glück. In 2020, Glück won the Nobel Prize in literature, making history the first American woman to do so in 27 years. Since Toni Morrison received the award in 1993, Glück is the 16th woman to receive the Nobel Prize. She is the Pulitzer Prize winner and the author of twelve critically praised books. This article includes an introduction to the concept and the feeling of the trauma of death, as well as the background of the study and the author. Then it deals with "Ararat "(1990), Gluck's sixth poetry collection confronts, with devastating irony, her father's hollow life and her mother's inability to express emotion. This might seem like a daughter's belated rebellion, except that these fierce, rock-strong, deeply felt lyrics are steeled by love and understanding. Although the poems in this collection focus on the poet's family, death is as prominent a part of the collection as it is a part of the poet's life. Not only the last part of the poet's life, as it is all life, but as it related to the death of her father and her sister.
