“Really moving. Hayden has created a heartfelt and ceaselessly hilarious tribute to her life-and to the resilience of women far and wide.” – Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Heartbreaking and riveting, Jennifer Hayden‘s caustic, sarcastic wit streams through her quirky drawings, unfolding a survivor’s tale and so a lot more. The Story of My Tits takes us from her flat-chested adolescence to small-boobed acceptance, then loss – until the dramatic reconstruction of Jennifer herself.” – Marisa Acocella Marchetto, writer of Cancer Vixen and Ann Tenna

“The pacing of her storytelling is seamless… Hayden’s memoir will resonate with anyone who has suffered loss and gone on to tell the tale.” — Booklist

Named one of Library Journal’s BEST BOOKS OF 2015! A landmark work of graphic memoir and a cancer narrative that Gabrielle Bell (Lucky and Cecil & Jordan in New York) calls, “comforting, straightforward and strongly connected to life.” When Jennifer Hayden used to be diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 43, she realized that her tits told a story. Across a lifetime, they’d held such a lot of meanings: hope and fear, pride and embarrassment, life and death. And then they were gone. Now, their story has turn out to be a way of understanding her story.

For everyone who’s faced cancer personally, or watched a loved one fight that battle, Hayden’s story is a much-needed breath of fresh air, an impossible to resist blend of sweetness and skepticism. Rich with both symbolism and humor, The Story of My Tits will leave you laughing, weeping, and feeling grateful for each day.
