Published: April 8, 2023, 10 a.m.

\u201cIt was going to be a story about American instability, and precarity, and what happens when we aren't able to access the things that we need \u2014 and yet still have to try to care for each other anyway.\u201d

Nicole Chung\u2019s newest memoir, A Living Remedy, reflects on the tragic inequality of access to the American healthcare system and the way it directly affected her family. Chung talks with us about privilege and class, how writing this memoir changed her, her literary influences and more with Poured Over host, Miwa Messer. And we end this episode with TBR Topoff book recommendations from Marc and Madyson.

This episode of Poured Over was hosted by Executive Producer Miwa Messer and mixed by Harry Liang.\u202f\xa0
