A review by francienolans
The Cancer Journals by Audre Lorde

inspiring reflective fast-paced

3.5

going back & forth on a 3.5-4 for my rating. i enjoyed the books. it was a quick easy read. i thought it would have more journal entries. one part that rly stuck with me was her going to her doctor's office not wearing a prosthetic breast & how the nurse told her off because it brought down the "morale" for other breast cancer patients & it just rly struck me because it's like it's her decision not to wear one & i truly don't think the other women in the waiting room noticed because let's be real when you're going thru something sometimes the world around you isn't there so it's very demoralizing to tell someone off for something that stupid. the book was very insightful.
