Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the impact of Western beauty standards, the book delves into the personal journey of disordered eating experienced by the author and other women throughout history. Emmeline Clein analyzes the medical and cultural roots of Anorexia, Bulimia, and Orthorexia, while critiquing the economic and societal factors that fuel the epidemic. She addresses the complicity of racism and feminism in perpetuating the thin ideal, and reflects on how these issues have influenced her relationships. This insightful work challenges the pervasive culture of self-shrinking in American femininity.
