My Tropic of Cancer

Living & Dying with a Dread Disease

By: Daniel Mintie

Narrated by: Daniel Mintie

My Tropic of Cancer: Living & Dying with a Dread Disease tells the story of cancer’s passage through three generations of the Mintie family. This deeply personal account relates the heartbreak, hope, and occasional hilarity that travel with any lethal diagnosis. Tropic includes gritty, day-today detail of the author's life as a cancer patient, and the wider environmental, social, and political milieus of cancer's appearance. It shares one family's psychological and spiritual responses to cancer, inviting the listener along on an intimate, inter-generational awakening the perils and possibilities that travel with this extraordinary disease. Tropic tells, finally, an exuberantly hopeful story, one that will encourage any family touched by cancer to find its own authentic, life-affirming and human response.
