In April 2020, we invited writers in Quebec to submit a story of a single day during the strange, uneasy time of coronavirus and pandemic, of social distancing and self isolation, of lockdown and quarantine.
We’re thrilled to announce that these stories have been gathered in Chronicling the Days: Dispatches from a Pandemic (Guernica Press). To learn more and buy the book, please visit https://www.guernicaeditions.com/title/9781771836579.
Please also join us on the QWF FB Community page, and let the authors know if their words resonated.
This piece is by Endre Farkas, writing in April 2020.
Wednesday, April 1, 2020 – Covid The Barbarians
Invisible as the air
they ride on our breath
coughs, sneezes
they are missiles
targeting knobs, cogs, skin
lungs, you name it.
