This Is Chance! by Jon Mooallem
The Great Alaska Earthquake, Genie Chance, and the Shattered City She Held Together
Set against the backdrop of the 1964 Great Alaska Earthquake, this narrative weaves together the chaos and resilience of a community in crisis. At its heart is the story of a radio reporter who becomes an unexpected beacon of hope, using her voice to connect and comfort the people of Anchorage as they navigate the aftermath of the disaster. Through vivid storytelling and rich historical context, the book explores themes of human connection, the power of communication, and the indomitable spirit of a city facing its darkest hour.
