Produktbeschreibung
Imperfect Heart: A Journal, a Book Club, and a Global Pandemic is a personal account of an unprecedented time in our history-a time that touched everyone and that we cannot afford to forget. It's a chronicle of the Covid-19 pandemic-but it also follows the political chaos leading up to the 2020 election and its post-election consequences. It's a memoir-but it's also the fictional story of four friends who meet periodically on Zoom to talk about books, the pandemic, politics, and their lives. News headlines and pandemic stats date-stamp and reinforce the chronicle-but the focus is always on personal reflection. Familiar in its narrative elements and yet experimental in its juxtaposition of those elements, Imperfect Heart is not only for those who remember the long months of sheltering-in-place, but for anyone who is concerned about the ongoing, relentless threats to our health, our democracy, and our planet.
