ReviewsThis gorgeous volume of maps and essays, 'born of the twilight hours the world spent at once together and apart,' is at once at a portrait of that time, an excavation of its contours, and an indelible account--often funny, sometimes sad, always revelatory--of how a microbe changed the ways that humans everywhere relate to place. A treasure.-- Joshua Jelly-Schapiro, co-creator of Nonstop Metropolis and author of Names of New York
