Book excerpt: 2020 has been the year of the virus, and it will not be a mere footnote in history. This book reflects on the unprecedented changes to our lives and the impact on our behaviour as we lived through social isolation during the global COVID-19 pandemic. From sociable creatures of habit, we were forced into a period of uncertainty, restriction and risk, physically separated from families and friends. Packed with guidance and coping strategies for lockdown, this book, authored by top psychologist David Cohen, explores the impact of this widespread quarantine on our relationships, our children, our mental health and our daily lives. Benedictine monks, hermit popes, Dorothy Sayers, Daniel Defoe (who made the isolated Robinson Crusoe a hero), Sigmund Freud and a rabbi’s angry dog are all among the cast of characters as we are taken on a whistle-stop tour through plagues in history and brain science, to the importance of introspection and how to make meaning from lockdown. In his trademark entertaining style, Cohen examines the psychology behind our behaviour during this unusual time to discover what we can learn about human nature, what lessons we can learn for the future – and whether we will apply them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does one record an extraordinary time? Confined to his Delhi apartment, Manash Firaq Bhattacharjee unravels the intimate paradoxes of life he encounters in the first weeks of a global pandemic. His stories about local fish sellers, gardeners, barbers and lovers merge with his concerns for the exodus of migrant labourers, the challenges faced by health workers, and a mother braving checkposts to bring her son home. Drawing inspiration from contemporary literature and cinema, The Town Slowly Empties is a unique window on a world desperate for love, care and hope. Manash is our Everyman, urging us to slow down and mend our broken ties with nature. Written with rare candour and elegance, this meditative book is a compelling account of the human condition that soars high above the empty streets.

Download or read book Separation Anxiety written by Gavin Bradley and published by University of Alberta. This book was released on 2022-08-16 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This poignant debut by Gavin Bradley explores the emotional toll of different kinds of separation: from a partner, a previously held sense of self, or a home and the people left behind. The main narrative describes the deterioration of a long-term relationship, interweaving poems dealing with the loneliness of immigration and the anxiety of separation from Northern Ireland, the poet’s homeland. These personal poems enter their stories through a variety of characters and places, from dock builders to dogs, from shorelines to volcanoes, to “mouths soft and humming like beehives.” Other sections of the collection examine a post-Troubles’ experience in Northern Ireland (evoking the lived-experience of growing up with bombs and domineering Catholicism), tell grandfather stories, and show a lasting love for the people, the language, and the land. Separation Anxiety ultimately conveys a message of hope, reminding us that “we’ll be remembered for / ourselves, and not the spaces we / leave behind.”

Book excerpt: When Luke O’Neil isn’t angry, he’s asleep. When he’s awake, he gives vent to some of the most heartfelt, political and anger-fueled prose to power its way to the public sphere since Hunter S. Thompson smashed a typewriter’s keys. Welcome to Hell World is an unexpurgated selection of Luke O’Neil’s finest rants, near-poetic rhapsodies, and investigatory journalism. Racism, sexism, immigration, unemployment, Marcus Aurelius, opioid addiction, Iraq: all are processed through the O’Neil grinder. He details failings in his own life and in those he observes around him: and the result is a book that is at once intensely confessional and an energetic, unforgettable condemnation of American mores. Welcome to Hell World is, in the author’s words, a “fever dream nightmare of reporting and personal essays from one of the lowest periods in our country in recent memory.” It is also a burning example of some of the best writing you’re likely to read anywhere.

Book excerpt: The non-self-help book: a candid and heartfelt collection of short memoirs from the COVID-19 pandemic that warm the soul and bear witness to the resilience of the human spirit.It's no secret that 2020/21 was unprecedented and unrelenting with the arrival, longevity and severity of the COVID-19 global pandemic. The enforced lockdowns implemented to tackle COVID-19 were an individual and collective source of pain and stress as we adapted to a completely new way of life. Collective trauma, alongside day to day life challenges, brought soaring levels of mental ill-health as we struggled through month after month of anxiety, social isolation and uncertainty. The concept of this book came about as I mindlessly scrolled through social media mid-pandemic and noticed that some people seemed to be flourishing whilst others were languishing - myself being one of them. As a policy researcher I was fascinated, sociologically and psychologically: Why did some people do well whilst others suffered? Was it because of who they were? Was it to do with their circumstances? What was it they were doing differently? And so this book was born. This is the first installment of the 'Life in Lockdown Duology'. This book examines the individual impact of COVID-19 on mental health and well-being through personal memoirs, focusing on how we can look after our mental health at a time widely anticipated to be the most significant mental health crisis in generations. The incredibly powerful accounts within these pages provide a solid foundation on how we can improve our mental health and well-being through healthy coping mechanisms, building resilience and cultivating positivity. This book is a collection of candidly honest and heartfelt memoirs from people of varying backgrounds, and of varying circumstances. Some loved lockdown, some hated it, some had a love/hate relationship with it. Regardless of their personal situations they all, without exception, reflect on the positive life lessons realised through their experience - and these are the simple things, things that we all have. At a time where the extent of the COVID-19 mental health crisis has yet to be realised, their ability to see the good in the bad will soothe and warm your soul.Ultimately, my hope is that if anyone feels isolated or is struggling with their mental health, that these first-hand stories will serve as a reminder of the small joys in life. These stories remind us that we are not alone, that we can get through difficult times, that it is okay to ask for help and that, even in the darkest of times, there is always something to be thankful for; there is always hope. The second in the 'Life in Lockdown Duology' contains an additional anthology of memoirs, with a focus on the collective impact of COVID-19. At a time of widening inequality it discusses the collective opportunities presented by COVID-19 and encourages us to confront the difficult questions about how we live, whether we want to return to pre-COVID 'normal' and about how we really want the post-COVID world to feel.

This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Olive and Mabel, Labrador retrievers who rose to internet fame as the subjects of Andrew Cotter's BBC sports parodies. When sporting events were put on hold in March 2020, commentator Andrew Cotter shifted to working from home. The one-on-one competitors? His two Labrador retrievers, Olive and Mabel. In the hilarious videos that ensued, the dogs engage in various contests, from bone-snatching and breakfast-eating to crushing it on the dog walk, while Cotter narrates to hilarious effect. The scene of Mabel, simply standing still in a fetid pond was one of the most popular. Why? Because this is how dogs live, and Cotter captured it with humor and joy. It’s why the series has been viewed more than 50 million times, entertaining dog owners, sports fans and celebrities around the world. Olive and Mabel are more than online celebrities, however, as revealed in this charming narrative. Filled with stories about how Cotter fell in love with his dogs, his passion for hiking with them through the glens and over the peaks of his native Scotland, and the ongoing relationship between Olive and Mabel (particularly the “competitive fire” lit during these days of quarantine), the memoir is by turns side-splittingly funny and thoughtfully tender. It’s sure to resonate with all dog lovers.

Book excerpt: After the harrowing experience of the pandemic and lockdown, both states and individuals have been searching for ways to exit the crisis, many hoping to return as soon as possible to ‘the world as it was before the pandemic’. But there is another way to learn the lessons of this ordeal: as inhabitants of the earth, we may not be able to exit lockdown so easily after all, since the global health crisis is embedded in another larger and more serious crisis – that brought about by the New Climate Regime. Learning to live in lockdown might be an opportunity to be seized: a dress-rehearsal for the climate mutation, an opportunity to understand at last where we – inhabitants of the earth – live, what kind of place ‘earth’ is and how we will be able to orient ourselves and exist in this world in the years to come. We might finally be able to explore the land in which we live, together with all other living beings, begin to understand the true nature of the climate mutation we are living through and discover what kind of freedom is possible – a freedom differently situated and differently understood. In this sequel to his bestselling book Down to Earth, Bruno Latour provides a compass for this necessary re-orientation of our lives, outlining the metaphysics of confinement and deconfinement with which we will all be obliged to come to terms by the strange times in which we are living.
