Robert Egan thought his first hurricane would be an adventure. He got more than he bargained for when Hurricane Maria blasted Puerto Rico back to the Stone Age. As the island-wide blackout dragged on week after week, he was left with more questions than answers. Is the power coming back? Do the lines for groceries and gasoline have an end? Will I defeat the Generator from Hell? Do I belong here? Robert realized that all of these doubts boiled down to the same question: What the hell is happening to Puerto Rico? He also knew it would take more than one story to tackle this question. It would take eight stories, to be exact. To truly embrace the uncertainty and call this island home, he would need memoir and magical realism, time and trouble, the call of the coqui and the hum of the generator. His stories could not be the adventure of a passing storm: they had to find their place in Maria's enduring aftermath.
