""FLOOD is a luminous reckoning with the simultaneous shocks of pregnancy, betrayal, and a harrowing diagnosis. Kalafus' chiseled prose cuts to the bone--bright, sharp, and thirst-quenching; I couldn't get enough."" --Adrian Shirk, author of And Your Daughters Shall Prophesy, an NPR Best Book, and Heaven is a Place on Earth, a personal odyssey of American utopian experiments ""FLOOD is an exquisite and, at times, harrowing examination of the world of cancer--and by world, I mean the 360-degree of a disease as seen through the medical establishment, the intimates and, most importantly, by the survivor, herself."" --Michael Klein, Lambda Award Winning Author of When I was a Twin ""Kalafus bears witness to the medicalization of the female body through a lens both intimate and wise. Peppered with the author's raw humor and frank admissions of doubt, this remarkable story is ultimately one of profound dignity and strength."" --Danielle Pieratti, Winner of the Connecticut Book Award and author of Approximate Body
