I 1906 drog den grønlandske polarforsker og opdagelsesrejsende Jørgen Brønlund (1877-1907) afsted på en livsfarlig ekspedition i det nordøstlige Grønland sammen med lægen Ludvig Mylius-Erichsen og kartografen Niels Peter Høeg Hagen. Ekspeditionen gik ikke som planlagt. Rejsekammeraterne kunne ikke finde vej og omkom en efter en af sult, kulde og udmattelse. Jørgen Brønlund var den sidste, der døde, og sammen med hans lig fandt man efterfølgende hans dagbøger og Niels Peter Høeg Hagens kortoptegnelser.

On January 25, 2020, after the central government imposed a lockdown in Wuhan, acclaimed Chinese writer Fang Fang began publishing an online diary. In the days and weeks that followed, Fang Fang's nightly postings gave voice to the fears, frustrations, anger and hope of millions of her fellow citizens, reflecting on the psychological impact of forced isolation, the role of the internet as both community lifeline and source of misinformation and most tragically, the lives of neighbours and friends taken by the deadly virus.

It is equal parts a story of urban loneliness and self-discovery and of the healing powers of kinship and love.

During his time, he met the renowned writer, moralist, and lexicographer Samuel Johnson, with whom Boswell would form a close relationship.

"Ormen og krogen er langt længere nede ad åen nu. "Hvis jeg ikke snart fanger noget, kommer du aldrig med på fisketur mere," forsikrer jeg hunden. Den lader et kort øjeblik den lange tunge hænge helt ud af munden og siger: "Aaaha! Aaaha! Aaaha!" Så haler den tungen ind igen og lukker munden. Den morer sig over de mærkeligste ting, den hund. Så prøver vi forfra igen. Plump! Og så nærmer stålormen sig atter roden."
