Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the intersection of body image and environmental concerns, the book delves into America's 1980s horror culture, where fatness became synonymous with societal fears surrounding processed foods and pollution. It critiques how conspicuous consumption was celebrated, yet hidden behind idealized body images. The narrative examines how the horror genre reflected anxieties about junk food, diet culture, and the implications of consumerism, prompting a deeper inquiry into the personal and ecological costs of excess in that era.
