New Admissions : Tales of Life Death and Love in the Time of Lockdown

As the global COVID-19 pandemic reaches the shores of Aotearoa New Zealand, four women find themselves in novel circumstances as healthcare professionals - and in their personal lives. In these new fictional tales from the author of Admissions, we meet doctors, nurses and other health workers, as a public hospital struggles to prepare for the worst.

In New Admissions, each woman's voice draws back the curtain on the lives of healthcare workers as they face the pandemic. These four highly engaging stories explore themes of caring and coping, joy and passion, fear and death - and most importantly of love, in all its complicated forms - in the time of lockdown.
