Diary from the Dome: Reflections on Fear and Privilege During Katrina (Paperback)
Description
"Diary from the Dome" is a personal chronicle of two very different trips to New Orleans, "America's Most Soulful City." The first chronicle is the author's 1977 trip, recorded in his journals as "a nave twenty-one-year-old discovering himself." The second trip finds the author caught in the vicious storm, Hurricane Katrina, and eventually becoming trapped as a tourist inside the New Orleans Superdome along with 20,000 other helpless people. This incisive and opinionated story serves as an eloquent tribute to "the incredible citizens of New Orleans."
