This book analyzes six key narratives of Hurricane Katrina across
literature, film and television from the literary fiction of Jesmyn
Ward to the cinema of Spike Lee. It argues that these texts engage
with the human tragedy and political fallout of the Katrina crisis
while simultaneously responding to issues that have characterized
the wider, George W. Bush era of American history; notably the
aftermath of 9/11 and ensuing War on Terror. In doing so it
recognizes important challenges to trauma studies as an
interpretive framework, opening up a discussion of the overlaps
between traumatic rupture and systemic or, "slow violence."
