The Coronavirus Is Rewriting Our Imaginations
By Kim Stanley Robinson

Why do I find this to be one of the most interesting lines
in the article --

"Still, if you read science fiction, you may be
a little less surprised by whatever does happen"?

Because if you read just about ANYTHING AT ALL -- not just science fiction, but also Louisa May Alcott, Isaac Asimov, Margaret Atwood, George Orwell, Virginia Woolf, you name it -- you'll be a little less surprised by life and death!

And now for some fun visuals
on the joy and power of reading,
with many thanks to imaginative readerly
friends, Curtis, Barbara and Igor:

Keep Out! Haha!
