The hosts noted that several editors recommended the postapocalyptic novel about a flu pandemic, saying they read it quickly during a busy campaign and found comfort in its story of a Shakespeare troupe traveling the Midwest.
and escape from this and this might not be the case for everybody is a couple of our editors recommended to me a book it was a bestseller a couple years ago so a lot of listeners might know about it already uh barry hardiman and eric mcdaniel both recommended this book called station 11 which wait for it is a post apocalyptic book about a flu pandemic that wipes out 99 percent of the population
this may not be your jam right now but for me it weirdly was and it follows a shakespeare troop that goes around the midwest performing shakespeare in the post flu apocalypse
and it was one of those books that i got it at the airport and even with a very busy campaign schedule tour through it in a matter of like four days and it was very strange to find comfort
in a book like that but for me that did it if you feel like that would make you more nervous maybe wait till late summer to read it but uh it was a really really great book maybe wait for the movie
wait for the movie i think it might be an hbo series coming i saw online i'd say i want to borrow your copy but i feel like i need to rub it down with hand sanitizer before i wipe it down
