elifnaz 's review for:
The Scarlet Plague
by Jack London
glad I didn't read this last year. mind-boggling that it was written in 1912 before even the 1918 pandemic, let alone the covid-19 pandemic.
"a message from Berlin—that's in Germany—announced that Hoffmeyer, a bacteriologist of the Metchnikoff School, had discovered the serum for the plague." (eerie considering the Pfizer vaccine is from a German company, but I digress).
and of course:
"All things pass. Only remain cosmic force and matter, ever in flux, ever acting and reacting and realizing the eternal types—the priest, the soldier, and the king. Out of the mouths of babes comes the wisdom of all the ages. Some will fight, some will rule, some will pray; and all the rest will toil and suffer sore while on their bleeding carcasses is reared again, and yet again, without end, the amazing beauty and surpassing wonder of the civilized state."
