Kim Foster: The Meth Lunches

This is a reading conversation with Kim Foster, author of The Meth Lunches, and Writer’s Block co-owner Drew Cohen.

The Meth Lunches reveals stories of dysfunction intertwined with hope, of the insurmountable obstacles and fierce determination all playing out on the plates of ordinary Americans. It’s a bold invitation to pull up a chair and reconsider our responsibilities to the most vulnerable among us. Welcome to the table.
