Lessons from My Left Testicle : A Turbulent Tale to Help Put Life in Perspective

When Ben Peacock, a young advertising writer, is unexpectedly diagnosed with testicular cancer, his life morphs into one darkly humorous rollercoaster ride of survival, which plunges through immediate lifesaving surgery, the prospect of imminent death, the ravages of chemotherapy, and the uncertainties of his future.
Ben Peacock writes: Lessons From My Left Testicle tarts in the toilet of a pub at 3 am and goes downhill from there taking you on a scalpel-ridden chemo-charged fight to the death which proves that you can have life sorted one day and be fighting for it the next. It is a humorous yet painful chronicle; lighthearted yet intellectually satisfying. You'll visit hospitals and healers, learn the dark but strangely amusing secrets of sperm banks and suppositories before being spat out the other side bruised yet emotionally enriched with the soothing reminder that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger ...and that when life throws out a challenge the only way to respond is to paste on a smile and go kick its arse.
