Reihe: Critical Storytelling

High School and university students examine the COVID-19 pandemic's lasting impact from quarantine's isolation and alienation to lost teaching and learning opportunities and the reckonings made on what was lost and what was gained. Spanning three years of pandemic life, the selections invoke memory to provide a sense of closure and healing for the trauma that ensued. From pieces written in the gritty moments of the pandemic’s upheaval to recent reflections on the impact it has sown, this collection preserves students’ perspectives on the historical and life-changing end of the world as we knew it.
