Clarifications

In “The Fierce Urgency of Now,” (Jan. 22 issue) A reference was made to the devastation that befell New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina made landfall in Louisiana. The reference offered context for a poem that was reviewed, but was not intended to suggest that the hurricane that caused the storm surge, rather than the poorly maintained levees, was solely responsible for the flooding and loss of life.
