Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Words cannot adequately convey the human dimension of the devastation wreaked on New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina. Thomas Neffs photographs can.As a volunteer in the city in the early days after the flood, this Baton Rouge photographer witnessed firsthand the confusion and suffering that was New Orleansas well as the persistence and strength of those who stuck it out. Neff subsequently spent fortyfive days interviewing and photographing the citys holdouts, and his record is a heartbreaking but compelling look at the true impact of the disaster.At a time when New Orleans residents felt isolated and abandoned, Neff provided the ear that many needed. The friendship he extended enabled him to capture remarkable images and to write sensitive commentaries that approach his subjects from a uniquely personal perspective. Here are Antoinette KDoe assessing the future of her ruined MotherinLaw Lounge; Juan Parke, who ferried scores of people to safety in his silver canoe; Ashton ODwyer defending his property from looters; Ride Hamilton pausing in his work as a freelance medic. These portraits and dozens more tell the story of the storm through many voicesand collectively they tell a story of their own.Other books have documented the wrath of Katrina, but none has captured the human dimension as powerfully as Holding Out and Hanging On. Through these intimate, intense images, readers will meet people from all walks of life who are exhausted by grief and shock but who are determined to hold on to their culture and their city. Neffs gripping blackandwhite images and equally poignant narratives show individuals who are reorganizing their lives, trying to maintain their individuality, and even enriching their souls as they help one another.These are the stories that New Orleans citizens told each othera view of the disaster not captured by the news camerasand photographs that show the city as it knows itself. Together, Neffs portraits and stories form a sensitive documentary of survival and stand as a testament to the extraordinary individuals who endured one of the most calamitous disasters of our time.
