      About the Book

      "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 rollercoaster 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.

      "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.
