When Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, the rest of the country could only read about the devastation suffered by residents in addition to the damage to homes and businesses, but for those directly impacted, it was a life-changing event. Even though a work of fiction, the story follows one main family through their lives leading up to the hurricane, their fight for survival post-disaster, and the shaping of their new lives after rebuilding and putting their world back together. Katrina Class highlights a love story, an unfaithful marriage, a student's struggle for an education at Tulane University, deceit, con artists and the mismanagement of local government, all within the backdrop of one of the most powerful natural disasters ever to hit the country. It is a gripping tale peppered with factual circumstances that will place the reader into life in New Orleans with its rich history and determination to survive.
