This Is Life: 10 Writers on Love, Fear, and Hope in the Age of Disasters by Kiese Laymon, Bethany McLean, Carmen Maria Machado, R. Eric Thomas, Bonnie Tsui, Garrett M. Graff, Bill McKibben, Stuart Stevens, Jacqueline Woodson, Scott Simon

2.0

Most of the essays were boilerplate pandemic / political commiserating, but Kiese Laymon's stood out dramatically—he is a truly incredible writer.
