Lyrical, provocative, and deeply haunting, THE TIME OF QUARANTINE, takes us into a near-distant future of post-human environmental collapse to chronicle the tale of a boy raised alone in the woods by computers at the end of the world--or is it? As the sole surviving member of an ill-fated Intentional Community designed to escape world's end plagues and convinced he is alone on earth, the boy--now a man--is determined to carry out the final wishes of his father and fulfill his stoic duties of merely being human. But when he discovers, as if by accident, that everything he's always imagined to be true is, instead, a lie, he decides to leave the safety of his little spinning plot of spaceship earth and go back into the world to find out what comes next.

Book Synopsis Love During the Quarantine by : Gwendolyn Gilroy

Download or read book Love During the Quarantine written by Gwendolyn Gilroy. This book was released on 2020-10-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vera never expected Coronavirus to shut down New York City. She certainly never expected to be quarantined with a good-looking stranger. Vera West cleans houses to pay her way through medical school. Her instructor is an obnoxious cretin. Her feet are sore. To top it off, she let her phone battery die during a pandemic. That’s just the beginning. The next surprise was a shirtless, tan, buff man standing in front of her. Whom she may have accidentally bashed in the head with a mop. Just her luck -- the doctor she brained is Dr. Simon Navarro, a lead physician at the hospital where she has been shadowing. Public transit has been halted, the military rolls through town, and Vera finds herself sequestered in Dr. Navarro’s apartment. They do their best to hide from the virus around them, but they cannot escape their attraction to one another. And when they are called on to work at the hospital, they are determined to perform their duties as healthcare providers, no matter the danger. When the world is driven into quarantine, love becomes more important than ever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They say that every 100 years or so, nature throws humans a curveball in the form of a pandemic. The effects, challenges, and changes may not be the same, still, a pandemic affects us all. But soon, everything we are experiencing will be part of history. The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has not only slowed us down, but also changed the way we work, live, and plan for the future. Not only for the duration of the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ), Modified ECQ, or General Community Quarantine (GCQ), but for a very long time. The Quarantined Thoughts book project (formerly called Coronavirus Chronicles) was created to give people something to do at home during the ECQ in March 2020. Our goal is to encourage everyone to chronicle life during a pandemic and help process thoughts and feelings through writing. Each of us has stories that deserve to be told.

Book Synopsis Quarantine! by : Howard Markel

Download or read book Quarantine! written by Howard Markel. This book was released on 2022-03-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This riveting story of the typhus and cholera epidemics that swept through New York City in 1892 has been updated with a new preface that tackles the COVID-19 pandemic. Winner, 2003 Arthur J. Viseltear Prize for Outstanding Book in the History of Public Health, American Public Health Association In Quarantine! Howard Markel traces the course of the typhus and cholera epidemics that swept through New York City in 1892. The story is told from the point of view of those involved—the public health doctors who diagnosed and treated the victims, the newspaper reporters who covered the stories, the government officials who established and enforced policy, and, most importantly, the immigrants themselves. Drawing on rarely cited stories from the Yiddish American press, immigrant diaries and letters, and official accounts, Markel follows the immigrants on their journey from a squalid and precarious existence in Russia's Pale of Settlement, to their passage in steerage, to New York's Lower East Side, to the city's quarantine islands. This updated edition features a new preface from the author that reflects on the themes of the book in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. At a time of renewed anti-immigrant sentiment and newly emerging infectious diseases, Quarantine! provides a historical context for considering some of the significant problems that face American society today.
