New Orleans Index
   File under: America

I recently picked up this book, New Orleans Bicycles, which is both beautiful (Mark Batty does such nice books and keeps the price low enough to entice) and heartbreakingly rich.

I haven't been back to New Orleans since Katrina, and I haven't seen Spike Lee's When The Levees Broke, just yet, but this and Robert Polidori's After the Flood, which I saw at the Met a few months back, are wonderful contributions to the index of New Orleans. They make me want to pack my bags full of hankies and get on a train.

I have been unable to watch the entire Spike Lee documentary. It is excellent, but so depressing as to require intake in small doses. Please come to New Orleans.
