Book Reviews of No Cure for Cancer
Book Review: "Anybody got some apirin? I think I've got a cold."
Summary: 3 Stars
Sardonic. That word came to mind when I arrived at this page and simultaneously thought of Denis Leary. You knew he was sardonic though, already, didn't you? Then he's probably much less of an actor, considering his persona on film/stage and off leaves no room for wonderment. But he is consistent.
No Cure for Cancer is an extended rant, travelling through the general touchstones of Drugs, Drink, More Drugs, Smoke, Meat, War, Life and Death. Throw in a hefty dose of 1st generation Irishness, some common sense, and a fashionably regretfull 1970's existence and you've got a good read. In particular, the Introduction and the passage about his father stand out. Entertaining, occasionally laugh-out-loud inducing, and consistent with his character in film and on his TV shows.
