O knihe
No One in New Orleans Will Die is a postmodern take regarding random conspiracy
theories, and interpersonal and cultural relationships between citizens and New Orleans
in the years following Katrina. As seen through the characters' dialogue, living amongst
devastation and slow progress produces an environment conducive to 'living in limbo' for
the citizens of New Orleans. It gives a haunting, romantic, intimate look into the different
population sample of current New Orleanians. A remarried, widowed ex-advertisement
executive turned construction worker who is haunted by his wife's death, a mediocre
jazz singer and musician, a disillusioned ex-banker turned grief counselor are the main
characters in the story. Social analysis of New Orleans and the current trends and problems
are resonated in the book through the characters and their relationships.
Discussions and observations of locals,
land marks, visits to the destroyed and
reconstructed neighborhoods have and
still are being conducted by the author,
J.S. Greene. The goal is to recreate the
culture and promise of New Orleans while
keeping abreast of the reconstructing
process with the utmost integrity. The
intended audience is the collegiate
crowd and older, as well as people with a
conscious of New Orleans's past, present,
and future and its romantic quality.
