How to write about the unspeakable?

Four leading writers deal with issues of trauma as well as playing with
perceptions, myths, fables and those things that are there, yet not
entirely graspable. What is the function of the mythical place, the
unexplainable? And how does it relate to how we experience and deal with
trauma? How does one write the difficult, the unsee-able?
