“Dava Shastri’s Last Day” by Kirthana Ramisetti

Hostess: Rissa Reddan

Co-hostess: Micayla Bellamy Adams

Dava Shastri, one of the world’s wealthiest women, has always lived with her sterling

reputation in mind. A brain cancer diagnosis at the age of seventy, however, changes

everything, and Dava decides to take her death – like all matters of her life – into her

own hands. Summoning her four adult children to her private island, she discloses

shocking news: in addition to having a terminal illness, she has arranged for the news of

her death to break early, so she can read her obituaries.
