Summary

1 Dead in Attic is a collection of stories by Times-Picayune columnist Chris Rose, recounting the first harrowing year and a half of life in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. Celebrated as a local treasure and heaped with national praise, Rose provides a roller-coaster ride of observation, commentary, emotion, tragedy, and even humor - in a way that only he could find in a devastated wasteland.

They are stories of the dead and the living, stories of survivors and believers, stories of hope and despair. And stories about refrigerators.

1 Dead in Attic freeze-frames New Orleans, caught between an old era and a new, during its most desperate time, as it struggles out of the floodwaters and wills itself back to life.

Audible book of the year (IMHO)

Multifaceted, powerful first-hand account of the impact of Hurricane Katrina on the citizens of New Orleans. Absorbing, nuanced and insightful. The writing is lean, passionate and carries emotional weight. Excellent narration. Highly recommended. As a British reader, I also loved the evocative descriptions of the city and the character of its people. Morally uplifting.
