O knihe
More than 207,000 women were diagnosed with invasive breast cancer in 2010. These are women with families and friends, careers and hobbies, and joys and challenges. In MARGINAL, author Susie Werle Larkin explores the world of breast cancer victims and their loved ones.
A collection of ¿rst-person, ¿ctional narratives, MARGINAL follows members of a weekly breast cancer support group as they express their struggles, explore their emotions, reveal their souls, describe their past choices, and clear their consciences. The group is composed of a diverse range of people with varied backgrounds and experiences.
Winnie learns that spending time with loved ones is more important than material possessions. Billy, who owns a mechanic's shop, realizes he may have to divorce his wife, su¿ering from breast cancer, so he doesn't lose everything in order to pay the medical bills. John and his wife, who was diagnosed with Stage IV breast cancer, consider a stem cell transplant.
Told through the eyes of caregivers, MARGINAL shows how breast cancer changes the scope of lives. The beliefs of yesterday may not be the beliefs of today, and with one pull of the right piece of string, the tapestry of people's lives can begin to unravel.
