Download or read book COVID Chronicles written by Kendra Boileau and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2021-02-08 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic brought the world to its knees. When we weren’t sheltering in place, we were advised to wear masks, wash our hands, and practice social distancing. We watched in horror as medical personnel worked around the clock to care for the sick and dying. Businesses were shuttered, travel stopped, workers were furloughed, and markets dropped. And people continued to die. Amid all this uncertainty, writers and artists from around the world continued to create comics, commenting directly on how individuals, societies, governments, and markets reacted to the worldwide crisis. COVID Chronicles: A Comics Anthology collects more than sixty such short comics from a diverse set of creators, including indie powerhouses, mainstream artists, Ignatz and Eisner Award winners, and media cartoonists. In narrative styles ranging from realistic to fantastic, they tell stories about adjusting to working from home, homeschooling their kids, missing birthdays and weddings, and being afraid just to leave the house. They probe the failures of government leaders and the social safety net. They dig into the racial bias and systemic inequities that this pandemic helped bring to light. We see what it’s like to get the virus and live to tell about it, or to stand by helplessly as a loved one passes. At times heartbreaking and at others hopeful and humorous, these comics express the anger, anxiety, fear, and bewilderment we feel in the era of COVID-19. Above all, they highlight the power of art and community to help us make sense of a world in crisis, reminding us that we are truly all in this together. The comics in this collection have been generously donated by their creators. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this volume are being donated by the publisher to the Book Industry Charitable Foundation (Binc) in support of comics shops, bookstores, and their employees who have been adversely affected by the pandemic.

Download or read book Corona Chronicles 3 0 written by Kenneth J. Fasching-Varner and published by Dio Press Incorporated. This book was released on 2022-09-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: COVID 19 has shaped, altered, and impacted nearly every facet of the world as we knew it prior to the start of the pandemic. From what was once a new and novel virus, to the development of testing, policies, and vaccines, and through the altered social reality that characterizes the new normal we work to make sense of our COVID-era realities. Previously we explored the narratives that marked the beginnings of the COVID-era in two volumes. What has been made clear to us is that our realities continue to spark narratives and stories which have a provocative and important power to help support our continued engagement with COVID. This volume provides a continued context for the power of narratives with a new opportunity to explore COVID-era realities nearly two years into COVID-19 - the power to chronicle, the power to transform, the power to inspire, the power to build allyship through hardship is the aim of this third volume. We chronicle how academics, educators, and community members continue to experience COVID-era realities at personal and/or professional levels: lessons they are learning and tales that help provide context, content, or convergence for readers. Chapters enter on issues of advocacy, diversity, equity, family, labor, technology, society, trepidation, and/or triumph and the book into four sections: On Loss & Struggle, On Adaptation, On Strength & Resilience, and On Moving Forward.
