Summary

Offers an in-depth look at Puerto Rico in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria and the preexisting crisis that conditioned this historic disaster. This work collects poems, essays and photos from survivors of Hurricane Maria detailing their determination to persevere. Contributors examine the lasting effects of Hurricane Maria, not just the effects of the wind or the rain, but delving into what followed: state failure, social abandonment, capitalization on human misery, and the collective trauma produced by the botched response. --Adapted from publisher description
