I Don't Want To Die Poor: Essays

"There’s nothing funny about student loan debt (trust me, I know!), but Michael Arceneaux finds a way to talk about it with honesty and humor in this collection of biographical essays that touch on everything from poverty and sexuality to Blackness and popular culture. Touching and hilarious, this book of essays can be taken as a whole because the topics and Arceneaux’s voice give it a great sense of cohesion. If you like to laugh while you cry, don’t miss this one."
