Norton ( ISBN 9780393064834). Her other writings include essays on the relationship between Judaism and feminism, and the role of poetry in Holocaust remembrance.[4] In December 2009, Gubar retired from Indiana University at age 65, due to complications following a November 2008 diagnosis of advanced ovarian cancer.[1] The "wrenching story" of her subsequent medical treatment (in which she underwent a "debulking" surgery which included the removal of her appendix, uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and part of her intestines)[5] led her to write Memoir of a Debulked Woman (2012, ISBN 978-0-393-07325-6).[1] She continues her story as a blogger in "Living with Cancer" for The New York Times.[6] In 2012, she and her longtime collaborator Sandra M. Gilbert were awarded the Ivan Sandrof Lifetime Achievement Award of the National Book Critics Circle.[7] Bibliography[edit] With Sandra M.
