癌症日记

简介

Lorde published this short book in 1980 with the small feminist press Spinsters Ink, two years after a mastectomy. It combines journal entries with essays, among them “The Transformation of Silence into Language and Action”, first given as a talk in 1977. She writes about fear of death, about the solidarity of women around her and about the pressure to wear a breast prosthesis, which she refused because it would make women with breast cancer invisible to one another. The book is regarded as an early text of illness writing from a feminist and lesbian perspective.
