“Romani Chronicles of COVID-19 is indispensable reading for anyone interested in pandemic inequalities and Romani lifeworlds. The dialogue between Romani and non-Romani chronicles in five countries at different points in the pandemic also generates a vision of better futures for - to translate the term Roma into English - humans.” • Sophie Day, Goldsmiths, University of London “This is a masterly and brave multivocal text about the impact of COVID-19 upon Romani worlds. It reveals another, even worse, global pandemic of ancient structural racism, one which affects those who are deemed not to matter, who stand alone, the Romanies. This other pandemic precedes COVID-19 and will tragically survive coronavirus´ last infections.” • Manuela Cantón Delgado, University of Seville “This is an excellent and path-breaking volume unique in its contribution to the field of Romani studies, anthropology, or social epidemiology. It will be an informative and enjoyable read for academics, practitioners, and students alike.” • László Fosztó, Romanian Institute for Resarch on National Minorities
