In the Aftermath Beth Skmorris

In the Aftermath- 9/11 Through a Volunteer's Eyes, commemorating the 20th anniversary of 9/11 in September 2021, is a journey through the author's experience working at the WTC Ground Zero Relief Project, Spring Street Warehouse that procured and delivered supplies to the first responders and recovery crews at Ground Zero clean-up and recovery sites. The journey continues on to the present with memories of people whose lives were impacted by the horrors of 9/11: those who died, those who restored, those who mourned, those who volunteered, those who survived. Those who prayed. Both History and Poetry- Recommended by the US Review of Books as "Nostalgic and poignant, honorary and honest, with a voice raw and uniquely its own, this book captures the immediate and distant aftermath of a tragedy still prominent in American (and world) minds." Through these poems, Beth SKMorris hands us today's lesson in never-forgetting.
