New Orleans, Mon Amour

More about the book

The narrative explores the vibrant and surreal life in New Orleans through the eyes of Andrei Codrescu, an NPR commentator and Transylvanian refugee. He vividly describes a city where dreams hold sway, featuring a unique blend of vampires, voodoo queens, and lively cemeteries that double as picnic spots. The presence of ghosts from various walks of life adds to the city's mystique, while the French Quarter's perpetual energy captures the essence of a place where the extraordinary is commonplace.
