Product Info Reviews

Description:

When Cancer in Two Voices was first published in 1991, one out of every nine women in the U.S was at risk of developing breast cancer. Now, as the second edition of this popular book is released, we learn that the odds of getting breast cancer have increased to one in eight. When her advanced breast cancer was diagnosed in 1985, Barbara Rosenblum realized that she was "only the first" among her friends to get sick. Rosenblum and her lesbian partner, Sandra Butler, resolved to make the most of their remaining years together. One of the things they did was write this book. Butler and Rosenblum's separate diary entries describe the social and emotional, as well as the physical, effects of breast cancer on their lives. This edition includes a new introduction by Butler, in which she writes about finding hope in the midst of this epidemic.
