Description (Dublin Core)
HUM402
This novel, published on the fifth of May 2020 and currently a best-seller on Amazon Australia, is one of many examples of COVID-19 or Quarantine themed romance novels, in which both the hero and heroine are in lockdown but fall in love regardless. In a twitter thread announcing the book, Scott explained that writing 'Love Under Quarantine' was a way to process the stress and depression of the current historical moment by giving it a "hopeful ending." The fact that people are buying and reading this book, and books like it, shows the power and necessity of feel-good cultural texts during the pandemic.
