Laura Kipnis' forthcoming LOVE IN THE TIME OF CONTAGION received a glowing review from Kirkus. They call the essay collection “witty…[p]rovocative and darkly humorous,” adding: “Fearless and sharply observed, this book suggests that future post-pandemic challenges will have less to do with its biological legacy to humanity and more to do with the impact of a virus on interpersonal closeness.” Pantheon will publish the book on February 8, 2022.
