The Corona Verses (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Tim O'Leary | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

San Pulmo was a quiet little beach community--until Corona came calling. Many suspected that Danno was patient zero, exposed at a Juggalo concert in Reno, only to return a superspreader. But how Corona arrived in Santa Pulmo is not the real story.

In The Corona Verses you will experience a town transformed by the pandemic. Meet a retired history professor that finds love on his iPad. Danno and his sidekicks hawk bogus cures in a strip mall parking lot. A trophy wife ponders murder. A homeless traveler discovers redemption. A family is destroyed by a raving uncle. A conspiracy theorist is trapped aboard a ship with snake-handling religious nuts, a 1980's sitcom star, and a militia that can't shoot straight. A yacht-rock idol escapes to Santa Pulmo to finally find peace. In this innovative book--part novel, part story collection--Tim O'Leary employs his trademark satirical approach in each vignette. Hilarious, touching, insightful, unexpected, and sometimes sad tales that explore the impact of isolation and the many other social issues that came with Coronavirus.
