Description:

Former aid worker Simon Boas was told he had terminal throat cancer last year and only had months to live. He began writing about his feelings towards life and death in his local newspaper, the Jersey Evening Post. This inspired readers across the country.

Now he has pulled his thoughts together into a book called A Beginner's Guide to Dying, which comes out in September. It will be a posthumous publication.

Simon speaks to Emma Barnett on Radio 4's Today programme ahead of being moved to a hospice for his final days.
