The Displacements

Holly says: The Larsen-Hall family lives the good life in Miami, where they’re wealthy and successful, until a Category 6 hurricane wipes everything away. Suddenly, with no resources and the family separated, they must adapt to a new reality in a FEMA shelter. This literary thriller feels like it would shelve nicely alongside Rumaan Alam’s Leave The World Behind, as it explores questions of privilege lost, resilience, and humanity in the face of disaster.
