{Thread} Through cycles of trauma & amnesia, through light & darkness, it's easy to forget about the past two ghastly summers. In this new book, we make sense of how the pandemic has ravaged our lives. Essays in the book 'The Dark Hour' put to words what we bore witness to. (1/7)

Nature - Nature has learnt that the periodic table, as well as evolution, won’t be taught to under-16s as they start the new school year.
