This story is about a flu pandemic that wipes out 90% of the population and human civilization along with it. Some main characters die of the virus. There are sequences where characters know they are infected and must chose how to spend their last days on Earth. Grief pervades every inch of this story. We see characters grieving relationships, careers, dead and dying loved ones, and the end of a world. One major character has been married three times, and every marriage has ended with him cheating on his wife with someone else.
