Paperback, The Breast is History
In 2011 writer and mother of two, Bronwyn Hope is diagnosed with early stage breast cancer.
Encouraged by a friend, she begins an online blog in which she faithfully diarises the days that follow, graphically chronicling the details of even her darkest days as they happen.
Her reflections are controlled yet raw and immediate, comprising a mix of honesty and humor that will have you by turns laughing out loud, or crying.
Over an 18-month period, Bronwyn propels her readers on journey that will deliver to her some of life’s greatest blows and most uplifting moments.
Along the way she shares intimate accounts of her life, her family and friends, and the challenges, both common and uncommon, of a breast cancer survivor.

Combining autobiography with humour and philosophy, here is a powerful resource for women dealing with breast cancer, their families and supporters.
‘Been there. Done that. But had never read the book and so glad I did. A cathartic journey retracing my own life 12 months earlier. Buy the book...cheaper and better than counselling!’
