Description
As the summer heat intensifies, two New Orleans families face a storm that will alter the course of their lives forever. In the Lower Ninth Ward, carpenter SJ Williams navigates the challenges of his community, while across town, Craig Donaldson, editor of the city's alternative paper, grapples with the deepening cracks in his family. When the hurricane hits, the fate of each family is forever changed.
The devastating consequences of the storm bring the two families together in a way they never could have imagined. As they confront the aftermath of the disaster, they are forced to re-examine their relationships, their identities, and the very fabric of their community.
This powerful novel explores the complexities of family, community, and resilience in the face of adversity. With its vivid portrayal of life in New Orleans, City of Refuge is a gripping and thought-provoking read that will stay with you long after the final page is turned.
