Four weeks after she moved in, Hurricane Katrina struck.<br />Rich with sumptuous details and with the authors trademark humor, <em>The House on First Street</em> is the chronicle of a remarkable and often hilarious homecoming, as well as a thoroughly original tribute to our countrys most original city.<br />"What emerges from a heartrending, soul-stirring, rib-tickling and palate-prickling banquet of details is why Ms. Reed cannot leave New Orleans: love. Its an undeceived devotion to a place and particularity that is admirable, and almost astonishing, in our increasingly deracinated culture." Wall Street Journal<br />"Reed shares this sliver of her life with a light, conversational tone, and though somewhat tangential, she conveys the richness of pace and flavor of the Big Easy as life gets back to normal without pretense." Christian Science Monitor<br />"Reed is a breezy writer who nicely captures the despair and elation of seeing the city slowly come back to life." <em>Chicago Sun-Times</em><br />"With her usual keen eye for the quirky and outrageous, Reed finds much to amuse the reader in this delightful volume." Cokie Roberts, ABC and NPR News, author of <em>Ladies of Liberty</em><br />"With great literary panache and a throaty humor, Julia Reed captures the magical allure of the city, its food and its people . . . destined to be a classic."
