Released in 2016, the book offers a critical examination of the discourse and culture surrounding cancer, presenting a raw and unfiltered portrayal of disease and its treatment. It presents the experience of sickness as mediated by digital screens and incorporates elements from ancient Roman dream diarists, cancer hoaxers and fetishists, cancer vloggers, and corporate deceptions.
