New Orleans, mon amour
Twenty Years of Writings from the City
Book • 2006
This retrospective follows Andrei Codrescu from newcomer to near-native in New Orleans, seduced by its lush landscapes, coffee aromas, and nightlife at places like Molly's on Decatur.
He shares experiences as King of Krewe de Vieux Carré at Mardi Gras, friendships with artists and eccentrics, and critiques of the city's corruption and flood unpreparedness.
Even after Katrina's devastation in 2005, Codrescu affirms the enduring heartbeat of this dream-filled city.
