Quarantining

In 2020, a modern plague swept across the world. Covid-19, also known by its generic term Coronavirus, brought major disruption to every continent on the planet. As Covid-19 raged, stretching medical services and sending whole countries into lockdown, writers and artists were among those who rallied with a burst of shared endeavour. The poetry in this collection, by Bruce Marsland, is an example of such a response. Consisting of original poems alongside parodies of famous works, Quarantining: Poems in the Time of Corona represents a slice of life in troubled times.
