Everybody Hides: How the Pandemic Unmasked Who We Really Are
Everybody Hides is not a history of the pandemic. It is a mirror.
When the world shut down in 2020, we thought we were facing a virus. What we really faced was ourselves. Behind closed doors, screens, masks, and silence, the pandemic exposed what had always been there: the fractures in families, the loneliness in friendships, the illusions of work, the weight of parenting, the fragility of faith, and the divide in money and power.
This book is not about numbers or timelines. It is about the human cost of disruption, the scars carried in bodies, the shadows left in relationships, and the silence that never lifted. From Zoom funerals to empty pews, from bread baking to burnout, from crypto booms to shuttered storefronts, Everybody Hides traces how one global crisis unmasked the truths people tried hardest to cover.
Five years later, the headlines say the pandemic is over. But its shadow remains. Trust did not return. Faith did not refill the pews. Work did not heal. Loneliness did not lift. We still live inside the aftershocks of 2020, even if we have learned to stop talking about them.
The virus ended.
The hiding did not.
