Fascinating. I had a single mastectomy and have written about it. A friend of mine did portraits of me, based on selfies I sent her. At one point, I asked her to do an image of my naked, one-breasted torso. I've thought about the reasons why women get reconstruction and also use fake boobs (a prosthetic!).

Ah! I wrote an Ekphrastic poem on this photo, which will be coming out with Anthropocene!
