Summary
Grief, pain, hope, and love collide in this short story collection.
In New York City, teens, their families, and their communities feel the brunt of the COVID-19 pandemic. Amidst the fear and loss, these teens and the adults around them persevere with love and hope while living in difficult circumstances:
- Malachi writes an Armageddon short story inspired by his pandemic reality.
- Tariq helps their ailing grandmother survive during quarantine.
- Zamira struggles with depression and loneliness after losing her parents.
- Mohamed tries to help keep his community spirit alive.
- A social worker reflects on the ways the foster system fails their children.
From award-winning author Mahogany L. Browne comes a poignant collection of interconnected prose, poems, and lists about the humanity and resilience of New Yorkers during the Covid-19 pandemic.
