Coming Out of Cancer: Writings from the Lesbian Cancer Epidemic
by Victoria A. Brownworth (Editor)
(October 2000)

Brownworth, a medical reporter and author (Too Queer: Essays from a Radical Life, etc.), has collected stories, memoirs, poetry, graphic art and articles written by and about lesbians with cancer. The volume opens with a selection by the late poet Audre Lorde, whose Cancer Journals were among the first writings to bring breast cancer out of the closet. Covering a broad range of experiences, this is a rich and useful collection.

All proceeds from this volume will be donated to the Mautner Project for Lesbians with Cancer.
