On January 25, 2020, afterthe central government imposed a lockdown in Wuhan,acclaimed Chinese writer Fang Fang began publishing anonline diary. In the days and weeks that followed, FangFang's nightly postings gave voice to the fears,frustrations, anger, and hope of millions of her fellowcitizens, reflecting on the psychological impact of forcedisolation, the role of the internet as both communitylifeline and source of misinformation, and most tragically,the lives of neighbors and friends taken by the deadlyvirus. A fascinating eyewitness account of events as theyunfold, Wuhan Diary captures the challenges of daily lifeand the changing moods and emotions of being quarantinedwithout reliable information. Fang Fang finds solace insmall domestic comforts and is inspired by the courage offriends, health professionals and volunteers, as well asthe resilience and perseverance of Wuhan's nine millionresidents. But, by claiming the writer's duty to recordshe also speaks out against social injustice, abuse ofpower, and other problems which impeded the response tothe epidemic and gets herself embroiled in onlinecontroversies because of it. As Fang Fang documents thebeginning of the global health crisis in real time, we areable to identify patterns and mistakes that many of thecountries dealing with the novel coronavirus have laterrepeated. She reminds us that, in the face of the newvirus, the plight of the citizens of Wuhan is also that ofcitizens everywhere. As Fang Fang writes: The virus is thecommon enemy of humankind; that is a lesson for allhumanity. The only way we can conquer this virus and freeourselves from its grip is for all members of humankind towork together. Blending the intimate and the epic, theprofound and the quotidian, Wuhan Diary is a remarkablerecord of an extraordinary time." -- | ISBN | 9780063052642 | ISBN | 0063052644 | 版 次 | First edition |
