The news just keeps getting worse each week, doesn’t it? For us, as with everyone, it’s gotten more personally impactful with each day. Grocery store shelves remain half empty, which isn’t that big of a deal but feels really bizarre. Easter plans have gotten canceled. Our kids are about to have what’s likely their longest stretch of time not seeing any of the three sets of grandparents. Jane is dealing with reduced hours at work (as a physical therapist) — and praying it’s not more than that — while I attempt to get in a full workload with the world crumbling around us. We’ve had to make the heartbreaking decision to cancel a long-awaited trip to Peru that we’ve been dreaming about for a decade and planning for 18 months.
I read A Gentleman In Moscow last summer after reading Bill Gates comments. Moscow as the backdrop for this story was unexpectedly interesting (I have read very little about Moscow). The author takes some time weaving the characters together but ultimately it was worth it. I look forward to reading it again.
