While many turn a blind eye, America has a very serious homeless epidemic. In Kelli Mistry’s book, Forgotten Souls, the Monroe, Michigan native, (and Adams Street Publishing Co. office assistant), highlights stories directly from the homeless, depicting their struggle to find shelter, stay away from drugs and express their humanity. “I’ve always had an affinity for the homeless, and I wanted to bring their stories to light,” says Mistry. In the candid nationwide interview collection, each chapter focuses on an individual perspective, communicating a clear portrayal of the those often ignored, exposing the beauty and potential of each human being. A portion of book proceeds will provide rehabilitative care for the homeless and the addicted.
Forgotten Souls is available on amazon.com.
