About Those People:
"Those People is a book of aftermath, written in and on the darkthe darkness of the screen, the darkness of night, the darkness of a soil alluvial with intimacy and difference, privacy and politics, pleasure and anger, memory and hope. Jenn Marie Nunes's forming and reforming syntaxes entail a vulnerable yet resolute lifeform probing its own survival under the tides of capital and the logics of extraction, expulsion and erasureexploring what it might mean to return, to remain, and to reclaim."
"Reflexive review of New Orleans'
Joyelle McSweeney
post Katrina culture vultures, gentrifiers and carpetbaggers
spoken through poignant colloquial vignettes"
