Description: Presents an account of obesity that is suitable for girls and women who have a love/hate relationship with food and their bodies, and those who has knowingly (or unconsciously) used food to try to fill the hole in their heart and soothe the craggy edges of their psyche.
Synopsis: From an award-winning author comes a darkly riveting, compulsively readable and, at times, heartbreaking memoir by a brilliant writer who is obsessed with food - and with being fat. "Fat Girl" shares a powerfully honest account of obesity that, until now, no one else has been brave enough to tell, an account that will appeal to the millions of girls and women (and not a few men) who have a love/hate relationship with food and their bodies, and anyone who has knowingly (or unconsciously) used food to try to fill the hole in their heart and soothe the craggy edges of their psyche. From the eloquent descriptions of food and eating to the heartbreaking accounts of Judith Moore's yearning for a family and a sense of belonging, "Fat Girl" is compelling, saddening ...and unforgettable.
