Summary: A local perspective on 9/11
Comment: In the Shadow of the Towers is a collection of essays and poems by Tribecca residents about 9/11 and its aftermath. These are the folks who live two to six blocks from World Trade Center, who pulled their kids out of the elementary school three blocks north of the towers when the planes hit and were unable to return home for a month afterwards, but who eventually did return to rebuild their community next to the gaping hole of Ground Zero.

The past year has brought us many stories of the people who died in the Towers, the workers who cleared up the pit, tales of tragedy and heroes. This is a book written by the ordinary folks who just happened to live near the worst terrorist attack in history, and continue to live there, under an empty swath of sky that serves as a reminder to the worst day of their lives.

It's one more aspect of that day's history, small but touching, and the voices are worth hearing.
