Description
One of the first testamonies to be published from a patient's perspective. Supporting Mind Cymru: a donation with every book sold. Marketing and features proposed with Daily Mail, Metro Media and Western Mail, as well as social media interviews. A regional experience of the first wave of the pandemic rather than the usual London-centric focus. Shedding light on wider themes enmeshed in the spread of Covid-19, such as class, motherhood, mental health and essential work. Draws fascinating parallels with Daniel Defoe's shockingly relevant Journal of the Plague Year (1722).
About the Author
Alys Morgan grew up in the West Midlands, and like many people from that area, has English, Welsh and Irish ancestry. She returned to live in north Wales when she married, and writes under a pen name reflecting her Welsher roots. She is a retired teacher and librarian who lives in north Wales, and enjoys reading, writing and walking. A survivor of Covid, she considers she owes everything to NHS Wales and MIND, who cured her body and soul. This book is a love letter to both of them.
