A really gentle, honest and hopeful memoir, exploring what goes on in the mind of a person with anorexia, and how the books Laura read as an adult in recovery helped her find reasons for eating again

Deeply emotional book, which weaves in memoir of Freeman's ongoing battle with eating disorders and body dysmophia, with her analysis of depictions of food in classic and recent literature. A fantastic read that will inspire empathy and a desire to read the classics
