The world is in crisis: as COVID-19 sweeps across the globe, people are dying in their thousands upon thousands, a nonstop tragedy, and most of the rest of us are in lockdown as our health and social services and carers struggle heroically on. It feels like it will never end, a new way of life, and even when it does, the world will not be the same, with economic hardship to come. Litro’s special Covid-19 blog will provide fiction, essays, satire and more documenting and engaging with all aspects of this crisis.
