t took a minute to get into this one - I found it slightly irritating at the start, a series of people in the beginning of the Covid pandemic griping about things like masks and inconvenience, even just a little within their inner narrative, felt hard to engage with. But I'm glad I rode that out, because this becomes such an emotional exploration of humanity in our vulnerability, our selfishness, our connection to the world and to each other, responsibility, blame, understanding - so many things that are lenses through which to look at the pandemic but also on so many other aspects of being Living In A Society. It sounds heavy, and it kind of is, but it's also very short and once it gets rolling, quite compelling - because while being all of the above, it is also just a brief, tense story about a woman who makes a series of mistakes and ends up in need of saving.

I wish the end had given me a bit more, but I appreciate the mix of grim, beautiful, hopeful, sad feelings this reading experience left me with.
