About the book: 2020 / "Due to the current pandemic, every country, every city and every village club has a barn lock hanging. A daring guess arises: maybe it’s not a virus? Maybe it's just the locks? It's time to take down the locks - and it's time to hang them up. Perhaps globalization has reached the point where everyone is waiting for a reason to close the door? These and other questions are being addressed by four patients at the Albert Camus Infectious Diseases Hospital. They don’t yet know that great discoveries await them along this path.” Evgeniy Vodolazkin
