- Summary
- "Engaging with discussions surrounding the culture of disease, Disrupting Breast Cancer Narratives explores politically insistent narratives of illness. Resisting the optimism of pink ribbon culture, these stories use anger as a starting place to reframe cancer as a collective rather than individual problem. Disrupting Breast Cancer Narratives discusses the ways emotion, gender, and sexuality, in relation to breast cancer diagnosis and treatment, all become complicated, relational, and questioning. Providing theoretically informed close readings of breast cancer narratives, this study explores how disruption functions both personally and politically. Highlighting a number of contributors in the field of Health and Gender studies including Barbara Ehrenreich, Kathlyn Conway, Audre Lorde and Teva Harrison, this work takes into account documentary film, television, and social media as popular mediums used to explore stories of disease."--
