'Very funny, moving and heartwarming' BOB MORTIMER 'A bollockbuster!' ADAM BUXTON If we are cowardly, we are told to grow some If we're brave, we're said to have huge ones If it's cold, they are liable to fall off - even if you're a brass monkey If we're in trouble, someone will threaten to break them If we have to work hard, we might very well bust them If we're in somebody's thrall, then they've got us by them About fifteen years ago, Richard Herring first took part in a campaign to encourage men to have a little (non-sexual) feel of their balls every now and again. But it was embarrassing and weird, and if there was something wrong, he didn't want to know about it. Anyway, that kind of stuff only happens to other people, doesn't it? At the start of 2021 Richard Herring was diagnosed with testicular cancer. For a man whose output includes a stand-up tour titled Talking Cock and who regularly interrogates our attitudes towards masculinity, it was a diagnosis that came with additional layers of complexity. Telling Rich's personal story alongside an exploration of what defines masculinity and 'maleness' in society, Can I Have My Ball Back? is not your typical cancer memoir. Whether they're nuts, bollocks, gonads or family jewels; from the phrase 'grow some balls' to infamous WWII songs about Hitler; Rich unpicks the tangle of emotions around his own testing times.

It was 15 November 1995 when Ashley Morrison was given the news every man dreads: he had testicular cancer. "I fought back the tears," he writes. "Cancer. Chemotherapy. Radiotherapy. These words seemed to be the only ones registering in my mind." English- born Morrison was in his early 30s, a sportsman of some repute. Always fit. Always healthy. Now he had to face an uncertain future. The title of his book - Please Sir, Can I Have My Ball Back? - sums up how he took to the battle: with courage and humour. Morrison tells how he came to realise that there is always someone worse off than yourself and how sunshine, friends and just being alive are more important than material things. Morrison is now married and is back playing sports, working as a cargo manager for South African Airways and broadcasting sport for Perth Radio 6PR. His life is happy in the extreme and while he will never get his ball back, he says he's firing beautifully on one!
