COVID 19 MUSINGS, CONTINUED...

I’m reading Eric Larson’s new World War II tome, The Splendid and the Vile”. The above quote precedes the start of the book’s recounting of the years 1940-41, years when London was attacked by German bombs and raids in what has come to be called “The Blitz”. I picked up this book on one of the last “normal” days before social distancing and self quarantining and isolation became a way of life. I chose this book because I am a fan of Eric Larson’s page-turning, historical nonfiction. And I chose this book as I had a gut instinct that we just might begin to live out an unprecedented life-changing upending of our world as we have known it.
