Songs from a Lead Lined Room

So How would an award-winning fiction writer tell her breast cancer story? To find out, pick up a copy of Suzanne Strempek Shea's book. Good writing is good writing, no matter the topic, and for those of us in the cancer community, Shea's exploration of radiation and the experiences and people she met are better than any fiction - and as most of us know, a lot stranger and more intense. I like this book for the intensity just as much as I like Wendy Burton's for its whimsy.
