Shayna Small delivers a variety of accents as a group of New Yorkers gather on the rooftop of their dilapidated building during the COVID-19 pandemic, telling stories to pass the time. The audiobook features a "pots-and-pans symphony" that applauds the healthcare workers who risk their lives to treat the sick. Small shines in this reboot of another plague novel, Boccaccio's DECAMERON, written in the fourteenth century as bubonic plague raced across Europe. The Authors Guild, the nation's longest-running organization for writers, brought together 36 authors whose names grace the audiobook's jacket; they include Margaret Atwood, Dave Eggers, Celeste Ng, Scott Turow, Mira Jacob, Tommy Orange, Tess Gerritsen, R.L. Stine, Weike Wang, and Ishmael Reed. Each author was assigned a separate part of the story. R.O. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine
