Quarantina: A Quodlibet of Chaos, Comedy, and Unexpected Comfort by Wayne Tatum

Published by DonnaInk Publications | Laughingcleaver Press

When the world shut down in 2020, most families clung to survival. The Kovid family turned quarantine into a full-scale comedy.

Mom Kovid's kitchen experiments border on federal offenses. Dad Kovid dispenses life lessons no one requested. And the three teenage sons?

One battles virtual zombies like it’s a full-time job
One invents pizza-scented hand sanitizer
And the middle son holds his breath as his girlfriend Amber fights COVID-19 aboard a hospital ship

From panic-buying fiascos to karaoke disasters, from questionable recipes to emotional whiplash, the Kovids prove that love, laughter, and absurdity are the real survival tools. And when Amber makes a miraculous recovery, the family’s resilience shines brighter than ever.

Part pandemic diary, part heartfelt comedy, Quarantina is The Office meets Little Miss Sunshine meets your own chaotic 2020 group chat. It’s satire with soul — a reminder that even when the world stands still, connection keeps us moving.

Listeners across the country have embraced Quarantina as one of the most refreshing, heartfelt, and unexpectedly healing listens to come out of the pandemic era.
