Women of the pandemic : stories from the frontlines of COVID-19 / Lauren McKeon. by McKeon, Lauren, 1984- McClelland & Stewart, 2021. Call #: 305.420971 M157w Subjects Women -- Canada -- Social conditions -- 21st century.   COVID-19 (Disease) -- Social aspects -- Canada.   Women employees -- Canada -- Social conditions -- 21st century.   Mothers -- Canada -- Social conditions -- 21st century.   Work-life balance.   Work and family.   Motherhood.   Parenting. ISBN:  9780771050398 Alternate title:  Stories from the frontlines of COVID-19 Description:  310 p. ; 21 cm. Summary:  "Throughout history, men have fought, lost, and led us through the world's defining crises. That all changed with COVID-19. In Canada, women's presence in the vanguard of the response to the pandemic has been notable. Women are our nurses, doctors, PSWs. Our cashiers, long-haulers, farmers, cooks. In Canada, women are leading the fast-paced search for a vaccine. They are leading our provinces and territories. At home, they are leading families through self-isolation, often bearing the responsibility for their physical and emotional health. They are figuring out what working from home looks like, and many of them are doing it while homeschooling their kids. Women crafted the blueprint for kindness during the pandemic, from sewing masks to kicking off international mutual-aid networks. And, perhaps not surprisingly, women have also suffered some of the biggest losses, bearing the brunt of our economic skydive. Through intimate portraits of Canadian women in diverse situations and fields, Women of the Pandemic is a gripping narrative record of the early months of COVID-19, a clear-eyed look at women's struggles, which highlights their creativity, perseverance, and resilience as they charted a new path forward during impossible times."--From publisher.
