“Flecked with arresting imagery, Cooking with Cancer looks, and looks again. Matter-of-factly, it refuses to flinch." - Mario Petrucci.

This poetic chronicle, spiked with humour, leads the reader through an unpredictable odyssey as cancer interrupts life and life interrupts cancer, as loyalty and belief are tested, and as the author is ambushed by the idiosyncrasies and changing ages of love.

Julian Flanagan was born in Peru in 1962, brought up in India, Cheshire and Dubai, and educated at Stonyhurst and LSE. After 20 years as an advertising copywriter, he became a freelance journalist.
