Reviews
"FLOOD is an exquisite and, at times, harrowing examination of the world of cancer--and by world, I mean the 360-degree of a disease as seen through the medical establishment, the intimates and, most importantly, by the survivor, herself." --Michael Klein, Lambda Award Winning Author of When I was a Twin
"Kalafus bears witness to the medicalization of the female body through a lens both intimate and wise. Peppered with the author's raw humor and frank admissions of doubt, this remarkable story is ultimately one of profound dignity and strength." --Danielle Pieratti, Winner of the Connecticut Book Award and author of Approximate Body
