<p>"Apocalyptic Polly" documents both the intimate experience of one woman trying to protect her family during a global pandemic and the broader story of a nation up-ended by public health measures designed to prevent its spread during a period of growing political division, social unrest, economic crisis, and extreme weather.A child of the Cold War, the author reflects on how a "prepare, prevent, and respond" mindset led to a lifetime of anxiety and extreme caution in the face of Covid-19 - but proved no defense against heart-breaking losses.This bracingly honest memoir is contemporary history, enriched with excerpts from personal text messages and social media posts that kept her connected to the outside world during her household's year of self-imposed isolation.</p>
