How High We Go In the Dark by Sequoia Nagamatsu 5 stars

[Sue]

This book is a series of interconnected short stories that come together to feel like a novel.

Spanning centuries (or even since the beginning of human history depending) the author uses a global plague as a vehicle to express the importance of human connection. Really beautifully written.

More than a little dark, and at first I had an eye-roll over the obvious parallel to the recent pandemic. But this was far more thought-provoking than I expected.

I am looking forward to reading this ... sometime!
