Grief, fear, and nostalgia for our relatively carefree pre-COVID lives (\"oh \/ let us slow dance to a fast song \/ because we can\") weaves a fabric that memorializes this international trauma. This book shows us that learning to live with fear and uncertainty uncovers the resilience we often don't know we have: \"So you walk outdoors toward the blossoms \/ And the monster loses its hold in the trees \/And you stand beneath the pink and crimson, \/ Its scent-feast you pray will cleanse and release \/As the petals rain down in a shower.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.1 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 06, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47352136794361,"sku":"9781646625727","price":21.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/TzBtd21uZDNJMVF5YytIMzFzOXZQQT09.webp?v=1769805619","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/lockdown-scenes-from-early-in-the-pandemic-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
