Jersey Shore resident Andrew Cusick will be the featured artist at this month’s Visiting Writers Series event, 7 p.m. Oct. 20.
Cusick, who lives and teaches at the Jersey Shore, is the author of “Song for the Dead,” a novel about a young man and his mother grappling with the disappearance and possible death of his older brother who may have jumped off a Jersey Shore bridge.
An original story of the tragedies and indomitable ecstasies of youth on the verge of adulthood, this novel explores what it’s like to be a 17-year-old boy in a haunting and lyrical still frame.
Refreshments will be served at this free event which will be held in Navesink III in the SLC.

Readings are co-sponsored by Student Life & Activities, The Wellness Center and The Center for Transformative Learning.
