Human Touch
A Story in Real Time
A new serialized story of hope during the coronavirus pandemic, set in the moment we are all living through together. "Human Touch" was written by Mitch Albom in the present, one week at a time.Set in a small town in Michigan, "Human Touch" follows the lives of four families who share a single street corner. As the strange new virus takes root in America, the once neighborly corner begins to fray, and a tradition of Saturday gatherings unravels. Some pull closer together. Some drift into mistrust and distance. A doctor must make severe choices. A pastor struggles with faith versus law. A Chinese-American couple is suddenly ostracized. And a unique little boy with an inexplicable power becomes the key to hope and a way out of the crisis. Until he suddenly disappears.
