Like many bookish couples, my wife and I read in bed before falling asleep. Now and then , one of us will read aloud, usually something especially beautiful or unexpectedly timely.
We both sighed – not at yet another arresting evocation of plague-time strife in a big city, but at its source: page six ofby Simon Sebag Montefiore. Anna had decided on this 650-page book as her new bedtime tome because, like many serious book people, she wants to make more time for reading these days and was looking for a subject that had nothing to do with COVID-19.
As it has done to so much else, COVID-19 has radically affected our reading lives. In the earliest days, I noticed a paralyzing circularity had set in: It felt urgent and necessary to read exclusively about the disease, stifling my thinking and imagining life. I desperately wanted to read about absolutely anything else, but doing so felt decadent and irresponsible.

Ontario now has 200 COVID-19 deaths; provincial case count climbs to 5,759BREAKING: Ontario now has 200 COVID-19 deaths; provincial case count climbs to 5,759 A virus has accomplished what the war on manufactured terror was unable to pull off—driving us with nary a bleat of complaint toward the rocks of economic and social destruction. Getting the testing up so we can end this nonsense. Also how is it even possible to confirm these 200 are accurate? Are they coronavirus caused? Coronavirus complications? Or people that died while testing positive? We need daily updates on the number of people being tested. The numbers of infected is useless without this information. We don’t know if the increase is due infection rates or testing rates. Journalists need to up their game. We depend on you.
