Résumé

In Melbourne, Australia, on 6th August 2020, the Victorian government issued stay-at-home orders. What began as a six-week ordeal, lasted for 112 days. As thousands fought to survive the Covid-19 virus rampaging through their bodies, millions more battled it in a different arena. Financial ruin devastated families pitted landlords against tenants and lowered living standards.  Meanwhile, an invisible virus cut a mile-wide swathe through the mental health of millions.
 Of Covid and Curfews is an intimate portrayal of one writer's journey through this historic lockdown. Dated entries highlight mounting statistics from around the world interspersed with reflections on ambition and parenting. This is a brave sharing of a troubled time personally and collectively.

Biographie de Christine C Elliott

Christine C. Elliott was born in Australia and grew up in country towns absorbing the ethos and language of country Australia. Her stories explore the endless backwash of emotion and conflict sitting under the surface in any picture-perfect town.  Her first collection of short stories was published in 2014. Since then she has published a reference book for writers, "Breaking Through Writer's Block, 25 ways to improve focus and boost productivity" designed for writers experiencing doubts and fear about their work and its companion book, How to Write, Publish and Sell Your First two Ebooks. Her 2021 book, Of Covid and Curfews (112 days in lockdown, Melbourne 2020) is part journal and part memoir; a very personal record of her experiences during the lockdown in Melbourne 2020. Christine is currently working on a relationship memoir and a second collection of short stories.
