Description
When Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, Abdulrahman Zeitoun, a prosperous Syrian-American, chose to remain in his house. In the days after the storm he travelled the flooded streets in a canoe, passing on supplies and helping others. A week later he disappeared. Eggers' riveting book explores Zeitoun's roots, his marriage to an American who converted to Islam, and the surreal atmosphere in New Orleans during the disaster.
