Abstract: Since 2020, writers across genres—including philosophy, memoir, fiction, children's literature, and policy analysis—have been documenting the pandemic in real time and in retrospect. This reading list aims to show that COVID has generated not a single narrative but a proliferating archive of forms, affects, and political understandings. Despite its focus on Anglo-American texts, the list aims to register the breadth of what has already been published about COVID and suggest some directions that remain unexplored.
