The Same Old Story (November 2020)
“The plague full swift goes by…” – Thomas Nashe
After almost a year of wrestling with the challenges presented by Covid, and despite casting a wary eye to what may well be “the winter of our discontent,” we have, with the advent of new vaccines, genuine cause for hope. In fact, it reminds me of a story. Well, actually, it reminds me of most stories.
