The narrator, an unnamed writer, moves into a friend?s luxury apartment in Manhattan to care for a sociable macaw named Eureka when his owner gets stuck on the West Coast. It?s the spring of 2020 and America is in Covid lockdown. The bird needs company. Macaws have egos. Like the rest of us; they can go mad if neglected for too long. "The Vulnerables" offers a meditation on our contemporary era, asking what it means to be alive at this complex moment in history and considers how our present reality affects the way a person looks back on her past.
