This collection charts the effects of hurricane Katrina upon American cultural identity; it does not merely catalogue the trauma of the event but explores the ways that such an event functions in and on the literature that represents it. These essays raise new questions about the representative genres that structure our stories and the ways stories reflect and produce culture and identity.
