Essayist Amy Shea has drilled down into the realities of dying poor in America, especially for those experiencing homelessness. Her book Too Poor to Die: The Hidden Realities of Dying in the Margins was published by Rutgers University Press in September. Shea, the writing program director for Mount Tamalpais College, a free community college for the incarcerated people of San Quentin Rehabilitation Center, will be in conversation with Madison’s Kendra Deja, executive director of Solace Friends, a nonprofit that runs Solace Home, a group house for unhoused people at the end of life. The discussion will be moderated by Meghan Allynn Johnson, founder and director of the Madison Death Studio. Lake City Books will be on hand to sell copies of Shea’s book.
