There Was No Possibility of Taking a Walk That Day
A Collection of Poems from the 2020 COVID-19 Lockdown by the Members of A Walk Around the Brontë Table
Edited by Kay Adkins
ISBN: 979-8649400206
June 2020

In Spring of 2020 much of the world went into Lockdown to control the pandemic spread of the COVID-19 Coronavirus. The members of a Facebook Group dedicated to the literary Brontë Sisters captured this experience in poems to preserve the memories of this unique and uniquely shared global experience. Inspiration from the Brontë family's life experience and their recurring themes of isolation and strength of character soar through these personal accounts and tributes to a family of unlikely authors who continue to impact us 200 and more years after their births.
