— Review of The Cancer Finishing School : Lessons in Laughter, Love and Resilience Peter Goldsworthy , 2024 single work autobiography ;

'Illness memoir is based on a tension between the general and the particular. The writer presents (to use a medical term) as both representing all sufferers of a particular malady – in this case, myeloma – and a unique individual experiencing a specific, unrepeatable event. Peter Goldsworthy, who is both a GP and a prize-winning writer, is better equipped than most to engage with this tension.' (Introduction)
