Illness as Metaphor and AIDS and Its Metaphors - Penguin Modern Classics
Susan Sontag
Reveals that the metaphors and myths surrounding certain illnesses, especially cancer, add greatly to the suffering of the patients and often inhibit them from seeking proper treatment. By demystifying the fantasies surrounding cancer, this study shows cancer for what it is.
