This was a gift to a person who has enjoyed "Nawlens", Poetry and Natasha Tretheway. She really enjoyed it.
What she appreciated the most was that she could read a bit, put it down and then come back to it at her leisure, allowing her to read, think, enjoy this work in a particular way. Other point is this is written in a way tied to the effect and affect of Katrina on the author in terms of Natsha's long term linkage to NO and its people.
