   Hi All...   
      
   When reality is surreal, only fiction can make sense of it...   
      
   In 1353, Giovanni Boccaccio wrote The Decameron: one hundred nested tales told   
   by a group of young men and women passing the time at a villa outside Florence   
   while waiting out the gruesome Black Death, a plague that killed more than 25   
   million people. Some of the stories are silly, some are bawdy, some are like   
   fables.   
      
   In March 2020, the editors of The New York Times Magazine worked to create a   
   collection of stories written just as the pandemic first swept the globe. How   
   might new fiction from some of today's finest writers help us memorialize and   
   understand the unimaginable? And what could be learned about how this crisis   
   will affect the art of fiction?   
      
   These Stories from Quarantine by twenty-nine authors vary widely in texture   
   and tone. The work is a historical tribute to a moment unlike any other in our   
   lifetimes, offering perspective and solace to the reader now and in the   
   uncertain future.
