Brilliantly written autobiographical account of a man faced with the prospect of terminal illness.
Prostate cancer is the male equivalent of breast cancer - the number of victims is almost identical - though it receives considerably less attention. This painfully honest book is an attempt to break through the barrier of silence and isolation to write about prostate cancer - surviving it successfully - with a frankness found lacking in every other book on the subject. It is one man's story and every case of cancer is as individual as the person whose life it threatens; yet everybody who has had it shares certain fears, experiences and doubts. It is a kind of all-male club and membership is not dependant on race, creed or sexual preference. Michael Korda joined the club, unexpectedly, at 2:30 in the afternoon of Thursday 20 October, 1994. This is his story.
