An account of the different ways the diagnosis of ovarian cancer affected two lesbians who were partners and active members of the lesbian community in Melbourne in the 1990s. The book covers the events of the last two and a half years of Maureen O'Connor's life, from initial surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other treatment.

The C-Word is an honest and forthright account of cancer. It deals with the loneliness the partner of a sufferer faces, the gruelling treatments of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and the terror and calm of facing death. A story of a powerful lesbian partnership, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of community.
