This is a Patreon Member Exclusive Episode (PMEE), meaning you must be a paid member of our Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/c/litsocietypod) to hear the entire episode. Today's book is about a death doula who attends death cafes to avoid pragmatically taking hold of her own life. If you have no idea what a death doula or a death cafe is, listen on. We'll break it down.
America's biggest city is full of people dying alone, filled with regrets. Clover wants to change that, and so she becomes a death doula, a professional who sits and listens and helps others let go of this life. But what's the point of giving someone a beautiful death if you can't give yourself a beautiful life? Will Clover learn how to live before it's too late, and she, too, is full of regrets?
