Reviews

COVID-19 happens to start with a C, and its changes also start the creativity, coping, connection, community, and comfort that people experienced (sought) in persevering during the pandemic, all of which is memorialized in this timely book. The contributors document people's resilience during the upheaval of the COVID-19 pandemic, in stories that are both accessible and nuanced, considering everyday issues of parenting, gender, politics, academics, and pop culture.--Carrie P. Freeman, Georgia State University Persevering during the Pandemic: Stories of Resilience, Creativity, and Connection is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the COVID-19 pandemic period and how it felt as a lived experience in both our daily lives and our reactions to the larger political and media events that emerged during the pandemic. Taken together, these chapters offer a lucid and provocative exploration of the strategies that we employed to come to terms with and make sense of our altered landscapes. A must-read for anyone interested in understanding the archeology of the strategies we employed during a period we are still living through but have yet to fully comprehend.--Margaret Tally, State University of New York, Empire State College
