How worried you were about things like running out of toilet paper, your career never recovering, your loved ones falling deathly ill. You're still anxious, but it feels different now.

You place your laptop at the foot of your bed and sleep upside down, just to add some variety to your life. Is it too risky to go get a haircut? When was the last time you saw a stranger smile at you? These are the questions nowadays about the experience you should be capturing. Now, all you know is that awkward silence before the video call ends, as you frantically try to press the button, wearing a fake smile on your face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut one venture outside will tell you that even though it felt like your life had paused, the rest of the world kept moving. People you know, or don't know, have been lost forever. There's noisy construction on streets you knew intimately, new restaurants replacing your old favorite ones. People are going out as if nothing happened. You feel like the only person who remembers what life was like before, what life is like now. But you'll never forget how the world changed, how you changed. How alone you felt. You will always remember this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carolina Vonkampen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Capsule Stories\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.72d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781953958068\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Capsule Stories","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":39829211512947,"sku":"9781953958068","price":27.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_a4fe4660-092a-4af1-9d74-4a626f6a814b.jpg?v=1644610287","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/capsule-stories-second-isolation-edition-9781953958068","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
