From its first ominous stirrings, renowned journalist Eli Saslow began interviewing a cross-section of Americans, capturing their experiences in real time: An exhausted and anguished EMT risking his life in New York City; a grocery store owner feeding his neighborhood for free in locked- down New Orleans; an overwhelmed coroner in Georgia; a Maryland restaurateur forced to close his family business after forty-six years; an Arizona teacher wrestling with her fears and her obligations to her students; rural citizens adamant that the whole thing is a hoax, and retail workers attacked for asking people to wear masks; patients struggling to breathe and doctors desperately trying to save them. Through Saslow's masterful, empathetic interviewing, we are given a kaleidoscopic picture of a people dealing with the unimaginable. These deeply personal accounts make for cathartic reading, as we see Americans at their worst, and at their resilient best" --|cProvided by publisher. 533 Electronic reproduction.|bNew York|cKnopf Doubleday Publishing Group|d2021|nAvailable via World Wide Web. 650 0 COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-|zUnited States|vAnecdotes. 650 0 Americans|vInterviews. 650 7 Electronic books.|2local 651 0 United States|xSocial conditions|y21st century. 655 7 eBook. 710 2 OverDrive, Inc.,|edistributor. 776 08 |iOnline version:|aSaslow, Eli.|tVoices from the pandemic. |bFirst edition|dNew York : Doubleday, [2021] |z9780385547031|w(DLC) 2021010074 856 856 |uhttps://help.overdrive.com/customer/portal/articles/ 1481649-|zNote: PDF format ebooks are not supported by the OverDrive app and require Adobe Digital Editions software. 856 40 |zAccess this title to use with your computer or mobile device using OverDrive.|uhttp://link.overdrive.com/ ?websiteID=316&titleID=5997282
