In an intensely personal and insightful memoir, Mary Cappello wonders aloud what breast cancer awareness really makes people aware of. Unable to eat on chemotherapy, Cappello feasts on the paintings of Marsden Hartley, yearns in the tradition of Dickinson and Stein, keeps company with Proust and lets queer artists tease her back to life. Called Back looks through the lens of cancer to discover, often with humour, new truths about intimacy and solitude, eroticism, the facts of the body and the impossibility of turning away.
