The Unclaimed: Abandonment and Hope in the City of Angels by Pamela Prickett and Stefan Timmermans

For centuries, people who died destitute or alone were buried in potters’ fields. Today, more and more relatives are abandoning their dead, leaving it to local governments to dispose of the bodies. Up to 150,000 Americans now go unclaimed each year. Who are they? Why are they being forgotten? And what is the meaning of life if your death doesn’t matter to others? This book explores this topic with real stories and a deep discussion of the social ills that have caused this problem.
