Arsebook: My Rear in Status 2011 Andrew Hindle

When Andrew was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2011, the first thing he did was wipe the lube off his bottom and pull his pants back up. The second thing he did was go home and hug his wife and daughter. The third thing he did was log in and update his status on his favourite social media. "Arsebook" is the sometimes-touching, sometimes-crazy, always-graphic tale of the short, unpleasant life and unmourned, undignified death of the intestinal denizen who came to be known as Arsetribble, told through the immortal storytelling medium of social media status messages and comments. Between these covers lies everything you ever wanted to know about colon cancer, but were too squeamish to ask. There's also quite a few things you never wanted to know in the first place.
