Until Further Notice: A Year in Pandemic Time de Amy Kaler

Until Further Notice: A Year in Pandemic Time

Autor Amy Kaler
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 sep 2022
In Until Further Notice, Amy Kaler records a personal account of the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic in real time. She documents a series of jolts to her thoughts, perceptions, emotions, and habits--an internal seismograph of living through a global emergency. Kaler's introspection underlines the universal experience of dissonance brought on by COVID-19 and invites readers to ponder its ambiguities. At the same time, the pandemic lets Kaler put down roots, as she rediscovers her neighbourhood and her city's natural spaces. Reflexive and relatable, Until Further Notice captures fine-grained, everyday experiences from an extraordinary year.
