Navigate in the Post Pandemic World with the Help of these Books

It is needless to say how much the pandemic has affected us – from taking away our motivation to survive, compete to taking away our loved ones, it did it all. The amount of damage the pandemic has caused not just economically but mentally would never leave us – the mark will remain forever; the break from social life, academic institution, exams, loss of close ones, unemployment, and whatnot. There is scarcely any right way to get over it, the only way is to dwell with it and survive it the best way possible, together. So, in this article, we are going to look at how we can navigate in the post pandemic world with the help of these books.

The Illumination – Kevin Brockmeier

This novel by award-winning writer Kevin Brockmeier portrays striking imagination and artistry about the injuries that we endure and the light that emits from within us. In the repercussion of a lethal car accident, a personal journal of affectionate notes written by a husband to his wife crossed the hands of a few patients in a hospital and touched each of them in their way and uniquely. A world created by Brockmeier where the human agony is articulated as an illumination so that wounds gleam and blaze with light. It will make us understand how we are connected even though we are all nothing but strangers.

The Book of M – Peng Shepherd

This book is set in a hazardous near potential world. It tells the appealing tale of a group of regular people trapped in an unexpected catastrophe who menace the whole thing to put aside the ones they love. It is a comprehensive debut that illuminates the authority that memories have not only on the spirit but on the planet itself.

A Beginning At the End – Mike Chen

Post-apocalypse, San Francisco – Moira, a former pop star has created a false identity to survive and get away from her past until her dominant father launches a public search to find her out. This book beautifully explores the struggle of this kind of life. It places characters under the microscope – a wedding planner named Krista, the famous pop star; Sunny and Rob, a daughter-father who were relocated from home by plague.

Death with Interruptions – Jose Saramago

This novel by Saramago focuses on death, as an anthropomorphized character and an occurrence. The key theme or concept of this book is how the society and people around us relate to death in diverse forms of occurrence and anthropomorphism and similarly how death relates to the people it kills. It is set in an unnamed country to the point that the past is unspecified and it opens up with the end of death. Mysteriously from one midnight on January 1, no one experiences death anymore.

The Companions – Katie M Flynn

Due to the rising of highly infectious viruses, California is under quarantine. There is no way living can go out but demise can arrive in every way and it arrived in all forms – manufactured bodies and whatnot. Wealthy people decided to upload their perceptions before dying so that they can stay with their close ones and the poor have no way but to die. 16-year-old Lilac is one of the less fortunate and she was leased to a household of strangers. The moment she realized that she can resist commands, she runs away from the constraints of servitude. Lilac’s act of rebellion sets off to Siberia to the very tip of South America.
