In this last episode on this year’s theme, "Care for the Future,"
Tamir Williams speaks with Rachel Kauder Nalebuff about her
genre-bending book Stages: On dying, working, and feeling.
Kauder discusses her experience as an artist-in-residence at an
elder care facility in the Bronx, NYC; the lessons she learned from
staff members at the nursing home about dying, grief, time, and
caregiving; and her expansive dreams for what end of life carework
systems could look like in the future.
You can
purchase Stages directly from Thick Press. And
you can
pre-order her forthcoming
Our Red Book.
A
recording of the theatrical production that Nalebuff created with
staff members at the elder care facility is
available.
Episode produced by Tamir Williams.
