Description:
Winner of the 2010 Victorian Premier's Literary Award for Nonfiction and the 2011 Nita B Kibble Award.



When Miles Franklin-shortlisted novelist Brenda walker became sick she turned to two healers- doctors and books.



This is the story of how she recovered.



Packing her bag for hospital after being diagnosed with breast cancer, Brenda wondered which book to put in. As a novelist and professor of literature, her life was built around reading and writing. Books had always been her solace and sustenance, and now choosing the right one was the most important thing she could do for herself.



In Reading by Moonlight, Brenda describes the five stages of her treatment and how different authors helped her through an arduous recovery. Along with insightful introductions to the work of writers like Dante, Tolstoy, Nabokov, Beckett and Dickens, Brenda show how the very process of reading - surrendering and then regathering yourself - echoes the process of healing.



Reading by Moonlight guides, reassures, throws light on dark places, and finds beauty in the most fearful of illnesses. It affirms that reading can be essential to life itself.



'A work of rare richness and unending generosity of spirit - a beautiful meditation on the gift of reading death and the spirit of survival.' Alex Miller, the Age



'Brenda Walker's account of the healing power of books is a gift . . . beautifully written, heartfelt.' Susie Burge, Harper's Bazzar



'Irresistible . . . A many-layered reading experience.' West Australian

Comfy and supportive
Love it! Very snug and supportive. I am 5‘6“ 188 pounds. I am wearing a 34H and it fits perfect. Will definitely be adding more colors to my collection. Hopefully they add the HSIA Delia collection that are similar to these, but have printed options.

Very Good strong material
I love the bra but story time, I initially got a 38DDDwhich is or was my size however I wore the 38DDD all day at work (RN) and the bra did hurt my sides like the sides were possibly too tight and digging into my ribs BUT the support was amazing and the minimizing was PERFECT I looked almost 2 cups sizes smaller in my opinion but I figured something was off so I ordered a 40DDD got those and the side digging wasn’t there but I lost a little bit of support maybe or I could have just done the straps wrong because it was a quick try on but overall I love the slimming effect and the material is soft and I truly appreciate this bra. The material is STRONG not cheaply made very beautiful over all. This is a good quality bra once I figure out the correct size . I ordered another 38G to see if I noticed a difference and a 40G to see if my cup size is wrong all together (which is what I think it is more so than the band size) I tried another brand and the 38 band was find the cup was too small in 3 different brands. Guess I’ve gained some weight but overall even with the pain for the side digging I could tell this was a GREAT bra. Just measure yourself correctly lol
