phantoms in
the moss phantoms
in the train cars dressed
like porters with
black eye makeup
phantoms full of
saliva &
the cottoned virus
phantoms in the telegraph
ink
grinding
their teeth now
horses follow the
messenger girl into
the wooden woods
While we have you...
...we need your help. Confronting the many challenges of COVID-19—from the medical to the economic, the social to the political—demands all the moral and deliberative clarity we can muster. In Thinking in a Pandemic, we’ve organized the latest arguments from doctors and epidemiologists, philosophers and economists, legal scholars and historians, activists and citizens, as they think not just through this moment but beyond it. While much remains uncertain, Boston Review’s responsibility to public reason is sure. That’s why you’ll never see a paywall or ads. It also means that we rely on you, our readers, for support.
