"One of the most common sights during post-Hurricane Katrina was that of the discarded home refrigerator. This book presents the communiqués that transformed appliances into message boards and explores the post-disaster environment that inspired their creation. It features hundreds of black-and-white photographs of the marked refrigerators, along with photographs of post-Katrina New Orleans"--Provided by publisher.
