<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A cultural biography of Brooklyn's Green-Wood Cemetery, and a cry of mourning for a post-9/11 world of perpetual war and environmental violence<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In Green-Wood, the author wanders Brooklyn's famous nineteenth-century cemetery, where the burial ground becomes a portal through which she can explore her own trauma after September 11, and uncover the historical and national traumas leading up to that event. For the author, Green-Wood becomes not only a place of death, but also survival in the midst of death. Green-Wood bears witness to the ways in which people and things are entangled with one another in vast nets of connection.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A gorgeous, subtle, idiosyncratic gem." --Dominique Browning, New York Times<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>ALLISON COBB is also the author of After We All Died; Plastic: an autobiography; and Born2.
