- Synopsis
- Billy Sothern guides the reader on a journey through post-Katrina New Orleans and an array of indelible images--prisoners abandoned in their cells with waters rising, a longtime New Orleans resident of Middle Eastern descent unfairly imprisoned following the hurricane, trailer-bound New Orleanians struggling to make ends meet but celebrating with abandon during Mardi Gras--and offers a powerful vision of what Katrina has meant to New Orleans and what it still means to the nation at large.
