$19.95
"This European Film Award winner documentary tells the story of Recsk, Hungary¡Çs most notorious political prison camp, which operated between 1950 and 1953. During the early 1950¡Çs the very existence of this camp for political prisoners at Recsk was one of the Hungarian communist regime¡Çs deepest secrets. Hundreds of people were taken there without ever actually being sentenced by any court, and had to suffer through the brutal treatment handed down by their sadistic captors. This documentary tells the story of Recsk from both the captors¡Ç and the prisoners¡Ç point of view, capturing the atmosphere of paranoia, humiliation and degradation that prevailed throughout the Stalinist gulag system."

I've been a huge fan of Tom's music for a number of years now! This album is one of my favorites - but it's so hard to choose between so much truly incredible work...

"Blue Highway" will always be my song on this album - it so deeply touches my soul... But depending upon my mood, I may feel "If I Fell From Grace With You", "The Crying Ground" or "Bigger Than Both Of Us". And other times, I'm all about "That's What I Love About The Rain", "Poetic Justice" or "Trip Of Love".

There's not a bad song on the album!

Description:
While breast cancer narratives have become prevalent in Western culture, few researchers have explored the structure of such narratives, relying instead on some form of thematic analysis based upon content. Although such analyses are valuable, Arthur Frank (The Wounded Storyteller, The University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 1995) provides researchers with an additional means of studying stories of illness, through the examination of their structures. In this article, the author applies Frank's work to a phenomenological study of embodiment after breast cancer. Frank's three narrative types are used to enhance understanding of the ways in which stories are culturally constructed, using data collected through one focus group discussion and two in-depth interviews with each of 12 women who had experienced breast cancer. The author then conveys the significance of this form of analysis for future research.
