In the midst of the global COVID-19 crisis, this qualitative study undertakes an examination of pandemic novels, taking out insights from a selection of ten prominent novels as its primary dataset. Employing both narrative and thematic analyses, the research delves into the portrayal of resilience and trauma processing within these literary works, with the ultimate goal of formulating a practical, yet handy, literary module designed to enhance student engagement. The analytical framework encompasses Resilience theory, Postmodernism, and Marxism, providing a comprehensive lens through which to explore how fictional survivors navigate and depict resilience. Symbolism takes center stage, notably through the metaphorical use of an infected rat, shedding light on the delicate balance between nature and civilization. The discussion on causative factors injects a sense of urgency and unpredictability, mirroring the intricate dynamics of real-world health crises and encouraging nuanced comprehension. The study goes beyond individual adaptability to scrutinize societal responses, contributing significantly to academic discussions. As the study concludes, the derived insights aim to facilitate readers in coping with the trauma induced by the COVID-19 pandemic, offering valuable perspectives on how fictional characters navigate and endure the challenges posed by the pandemic.
