'It's as if Hayley has been inside my head and captured every thought I had during treatment . . . an honest, brave, no-holds barred account'
Liz O'Riordan, surgeon and breast cancer survivor

'Hilarious, complex, honest and profound. Every page made me laugh. Most of them also made me cry.'
Ian Dunt, political journalist and broadcaster

In This Might Surprise You: A Breast Cancer Story, Hayley Gullen maps the physical and emotional trajectory of her diagnosis, treatment and recovery from breast cancer. But this is no ordinary memoir: told in a distinctive cartoon format, Hayley recounts in detail the reality of an experience by turns devastating, painful, absurd and ultimately life-affirming.

In the UK, one in seven women will be affected by breast cancer at some point in their lives. Providing indispensable advice on navigating the medical system, bridging the doctor-patient divide, and compassionately communicating with your partner, children and loved ones as you go through the experience together – this book offers crucial support and hope.

Hayley's storytelling and cartoons are perfectly paired to show the emotional ups and downs of living with cancer. This book is a companion for those going through treatment themselves, helping them to feel less alone, as well as for their loved ones.

...bravely explores this life changing journey, with both pathos, grit and humor * Sonja O'Hara, Emmy-nominated filmmaker and actress * This is truly brilliant. It will help so many people * Dr Anisha Patel, GP, author and cancer survivor * A refreshing take on the cancer pathway from someone who truly knows. Will help those affected and those not to understand * Dr Philippa Kaye * Absolutely fabulous and should be prescribed for every woman starting their treatment * Greg Wise * A poignant, funny, heart wrenching, beautifully artistic look at the rollercoaster of cancer and the aftermath of recovery. It is a story for the cancer patient and their community; a piece of a map for when the world feels like it is falling apart * Gaia Wise * One of the most truthful and unflinching accounts of a diagnosis and navigating the cancer system. It is heartwarming, and soft, but also is unflinching in the anger and despair I know so many of us feel. * Rosa Hesmondhalgh, actress and cancer survivor *
