Any time a person's memoir can bring me to tears before I've even finished the first chapter, then the author has succeeded.  Dissolute Kinship: A 9/11 Road Trip evoked memories and emotions that I haven't experienced since that fateful day when the Twin Towers ceased to exist. Unlike the author of this story, I've never been to New York City and his words walked me thru the tragedy that happened there, just as if he was holding my hand and guiding me down the streets.The memoir is short, only took me an hour or so to read it, but it didn't need to be any longer.  Every sentence in the book packs a punch that unless you are with out a heart, will impact deeply on your soul.  I think every American should read this at least once.  But do be prepared for the tears to fall.
