It's quite likely you'll be hearing -- or have already heard -- about this full-color hardcover graphic memoir in the mainstream press. It tells the true story of the cartoonist-author's own eleven-month bout with breast cancer. She fights her potentially devastating disease with a sophisticated urban sense of humor that triumphs in the end. Obviously a work that is tailor-made to encourage women who themselves are confronting or have confronted breast cancer, this is a work that nevertheless manages to universalize the author's own struggle and can make for an engaging and uplifting read.
