Uses graphic novel format to depict the events of Hurricane Katrina though six true stories of New Orleanians who survived the storm, including Denise, who experienced the chaos of the Superdome, and a doctor whose French Quarter home was unscathed.

I have a thing for journalism comics like this. I watched Katrina on TV, and it just wasn't comprehensible, but through the eyes of these seven people, it's become a lot more vivid and personal. Makes you feel closer to what happened there.
A graphic novel told from seven points of view about the events before, during, and after Hurricane Katrina. I loved Zeitoun, a recent read about Katrina. I loved A.D., too.
(I suppose I will always find it jarring to see comic book characters smoke and drink, but hey, I would imagine there was a lot of smoking and drinking in NO after Katrina.)
