Kevin Fagan’s The Lost and the Found, set in San Francisco—one of the wealthiest cities in America—explores the human side of what’s behind the homelessness epidemic with deep understanding and empathy.
An award-winning journalist and Pulitzer Prize nominee who has covered homelessness for decades and spent extensive time on the streets for his reporting, Fagan experienced it himself as a young man. He introduces us to Rita and Tyson, telling the deeply moving story of two unhoused people rescued by their families with the help of Fagan’s reporting, and their struggle to pull themselves out of homelessness and addiction, ending with both enormous tragedy and triumph.
But The Lost and the Found is not just a story of individuals experiencing homelessness, it is also a compelling look at the link between homelessness and addiction, and an incisive commentary on housing and equality. Fagan shines a sharp light on this national calamity, and in sharing Rita and Tyson’s stories, The Lost and the Found has the potential to change the way we see and help the homeless. Join Angie Coiro as we investigate beyond the headlines. About the Author Kevin Fagan is a longtime, award-winning reporter at the San Francisco Chronicle.
