Looks like an interesting work, and the subject matter is certainly contemporary. Usually, I don't get swept up in this "disaster-brings-out-the-best-in-us" kind've artistic catharsis, but it looks to me like this is a novel that can stand on its own merit, and not merely as a piece of artistic detritus left behind to futilely try to address the mess in the wake of a tragedy.
