Ah the HSTQ pandemic special, I was hoping they would produce one and it doesn't disappoint. From John Gartland's strong opening which gives a pretty good account of 2020 to J. A. Carter-Winward remembering past lovers cum sounds this collection captures the surreal experiences of the 2020 lockdown. Some very good additions this time around, A strong piece of prose from Andy Seven, great to see him included here. You get your usual level of violence and smuttiness but the stand out poem for me was "some things can never be put back together" by Bogdan Dragos, if I was drinking when reading that one I would have been in quick a mess so be warned.

Mr. Graham gives us the statement of 2020. STOP HOARDING TOILET PAPER!
