Newer to the ranks is Mira Harris. New Admissions is her second self-published book, following on from Admissions, eight stories about hospital life with female central characters. This second volume is slight, around 70 pages, comprised of four stories set firmly in 2020 through the Covid pandemic. The stories improve as the book progresses, each of them heart-felt, strongly feminist and with an over-riding theme of loneliness in lockdown. New Admissions: Tales of life, death & love in the time of lockdown by Mira Harrison (Mira Harrison, $25.).
