The bestselling author and cancer survivor delivers "an optimistic instruction manual... [for] anyone struggling with self-care in a time of trouble" (Story Circle Book Reviews).

Survival Lessons provides a road map of how to reclaim your life from this day forward, with ways to reenvision everything -- from relationships with friends and family to the way you see yourself. As Alice Hoffman says, "In many ways I wrote Survival Lessons to remind myself of the beauty of life, something that's all too easy to overlook during the crisis of illness or loss... I forgot that our lives are made up of equal parts of sorrow and joy, and that it is impossible to have one without the other... I wrote to remind myself that... despite everything that was happening to me, there were still choices I could make."

Wise, gentle, and wry, Alice Hoffman teaches all of us how to choose what matters most.

"In this gem of a book, Alice Hoffman acknowledges the sorrows of life, while reminding us of its joys. Survival Lessons is filled with love, insight, and lots of practical advice -- including a crazy-good brownie recipe." -- Will Schwalbe, New York Times-bestselling author of The End of Your Life Book Club

"Hoffman's storytelling artistry enlivens each intimate, thoughtfully distilled, charming, and nurturing lesson in living." -- Booklist

"Full of smart intentions and kind reminders... Uplifting advice we'll gladly take." -- Better Homes & Gardens

"The book is not about her breast cancer per se but about making choices that will improve readers' lives and relationships and remind them 'of the beauty of life.'" -- Library Journal
