In the Shadow of the Fallen Towers
In the Shadow of the Fallen Towers: The Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks, Months, and Years After the 9/11 Attacks | Don Brown
6 posts | 5 read | 4 to read
A graphic novel chronicling the immediate aftermath and rippling effects of one of the most impactful days in modern history: September 11, 2001. From the Sibert Honor- and YALSA Award-winning creator behind The Unwanted and Drowned City. The consequences of the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York City, both political and personal, were vast, and continue to reverberate today. Don Brown brings his journalistic eye and attention to moving individual stories to help teens contextualize what they already know about the day, as well as broaden their understanding of the chain of events that occurred in the attack's wake. Profound, troubling, and deeply moving, In the Shadow of the Fallen Towers bears witness to our history--and the ways it shapes our future.

This graphic history deals less with the 9/11 attacks and more with the aftermath, America‘s response, and the lengthy clean up of the site. Recommend.

This short, detailed graphic novel is a good entry point for those who do not remember that horrific day. It factually looks at the events of the day and their aftermath. The art is appropriate for the event - dark and muted.

I received an ARC from Netgalley for an honest review.
