Until the Flood - Paperback

by Dael Orlandersmith (Author)

"Until the Flood is an urgent moral inquest." --Jesse Green, New York Times

In the gripping and revelatory Until the Flood, Dael Orlandersmith journeys into the heart and soul of modern-day America--confronting the powerful forces of history, race, and politics. Drawn from interviews following the shooting of a black teenager, Michael Brown, by a white police officer, Darren Wilson, Orlandersmith embodies the many faces of a community rallying for justice and a country still yearning for change.
