The Fell by Sarah Moss.

Apocalypse isn’t what it used to be these days.. And the fact that“humanity’s ending appears to be slow, lacking in cliffhangers or indeed any satisfactory narrative shape; characterized, for the lucky, by the gradual vindication of accumulating dread.”
The Fell is written from the perspectives of four characters during 2020, Covid-19 lockdown and pandemic. I read this in two sittings. I kept thinking about it and the characters. The writing is quite rambling but beautifully done and comes out in the character's mind, a sort of free consciousness. If you don't like this or need punctuation marks then this book may not appeal to you!
I thoroughly enjoyed this one. A nice, short read that responds to a very bad and sad time in our world.
