These reflections, leavened with a fierce wit and moving bravura of language, are extracted from the origins and ends of the poet's life-his birth in the final spasms of the second World War, the fears and excitements of youth, the death of parents, and the unexpected losses of adulthood. Marking his tracks between the Pelican State a

Abstract

In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina, followed by multiple levee failures, devastated New Orleans and other parts of the U.S. Gulf Coast, inflicting major damage to commercial property, infrastructure, and housing.

Recovering from a disaster of this magnitude poses a major challenge to the city, the state, and the nation.
