Chang Shih Yen is a writer who lives in New Zealand. When the global pandemic hit, and countries went into lockdown, Shih Yen found herself alone at home and without internet. During lockdown, she took ’stay at home’ orders seriously and did not go outside. She did not open her front door for 24 days, and did not buy food for 33 days. During that time, she wrote a lot in her diary. This book contains excerpts from her diary, and covers 6 months, starting with the first lockdown in New Zealand in March 2020.
