This documentation of the author’s diagnosis and treatment for ovarian cancer is not for the faint of heart. She writes very graphically and intellectually about her experience with ovarian cancer. To quote the New York Times Book Review: “Memoir of a Debulked Woman: Enduring Ovarian Cancer is her attempt to share and make sense of her experience – at once a memoir, a review of sobering medical facts, a compilation of cancer reminiscences and of descriptions of illness in literature and art – delivered in a voice that is intelligent, feminist and devastatingly honest.”
