Edited by Paul Iarribino

Paul was compelled to create this new body of work based on his personal experiences navigating the pandemic. Witnessing and learning from others fueled the energy around creating a collection of stories and poems to give meaning to changed lives in a topsy-turvy world.

Fifteen literary gems are inside for you to examine how COVID has affected people. How similar have your experiences been? Is there an end to this? Will we be better off? Knowledge of others’ experiences with COVID is one step in understanding the answers.

These stories and poems are meant to be read and shared.

“Heartfelt, honest, and worth your time. The passages were honest, heartfelt, sometimes funny, and sometimes tear-inducing, but always very real. When I finished the book I immediately wondered if Paul would be putting together a second volume so I could continue reading these experiences, as this anthology helped me to find some meaning and peace in the chaos of pandemic life.” — Amazon Customer
