Unexpected; quirky and provocative; BALL Other Funny Stories About Cancer is a unique collection of performances about illness and the changing body over time. Documenting a trilogy of Brian Lobelrsquo;s monologue performances from 2001-2011; this collection challenges the inspirational stories of survivors and martyrs that have come before; infusing the lsquo;cancer storyrsquo; with an urgency and humour which is sometimes inappropriate; often salacious and always; above all else; honest and open.Published together for the first time; this collection of performances goes beyond the chemotherapy to include reflections on politics; sexuality and gender; providing cancer ndash; and cancer narratives ndash; with a much-deserved kick in the ball(s).

Im 27 years old but Im a big Pullman fan so I read this despite the fact that it is probably intended for a younger audience. Like I said. cute and simple. Nothing complex or tremendously moving.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great book for kids 7-10ishBy AryI read this to my daughter and we both found it highly amusing.
