The Cancer Journals is an intimate, poetic and invigorating account of
the experience of breast cancer, from biopsy to mastectomy, told by the
great feminist and activist Audre Lorde. Moving between journal entry,
memoir, and essay, Lorde fuses the personal and political to reflect on
the many questions breast cancer raises: questions of survival,
sexuality, prosthesis and self-care. It is a journey of survival,
friendship, and self-acceptance.
'Grief, terror, courage, the
passion for survival and for more than survival, are here in the
searchings of a great poet' Adrienne Rich' This book teaches me that with
one breast or none, I am still me' Alice Walker
