"I heard you say something, but I couldn't make it out. It sounded like you said there's a tiger in the backyard." I laugh because by now, it wouldn't surprise me. A tiger? Sure. Why not?

"I heard you say something, but I couldn't make it out. It sounded like you said there's a tiger in the backyard." I laugh because by now, it wouldn't surprise me. A tiger? Sure. Why not? Because a pandemic and a heat dome and drought and a province on fire and grasshoppers and apocalyptic skies and endless ash and charred pine needles falling aren't enough. Let's add a tiger to the mix. Nothing surprises me anymore. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In 2020, every person in every place in the world was shaken. British Columbians in Canada learned to live in the liminality of waiting for a semblance of normal life to return while weathering an unprecedented heat dome and fire season, followed by flooding and mudslides. By the summer of 2021, a tiger in the backyard seemed entirely plausible. Living Liminal: A Slice of Pandemic Life is a thoughtful collection of journal entries, poetry, blog and social media posts, interspersed with government directives to provide context, written during the COVID-19 pandemic. The author highlights the grief and grace of those two unforgettable years, inviting the reader to notice the sacred woven through the daily rhythms of life.
