Virus City

AVAILABLE NOW

Virus City, shares the stories of Chicagoans navigating life in the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"This collection is full of people who are telling their stories with honesty and in earnest.

You'll be reading about firefighters and EMTs who see death and pain on a daily basis and have to be around groups of people; a worker at an adolescent psychiatric inpatient facility who watches his students find some other home to go to; teachers and students who were thrown into online learning with little to no preparation, and how that has created worry about an uncertain future; or a student working in Chinatown who now has to deal not only with the stress of work, but also with prejudice and hate against Asian-Americans.

This collection is about human beings living and struggling, but most importantly, overcoming. This collection is about more than the human condition. It's about human resiliency."
