Synopsis:
Both a cautionary tale and a call to arms for women whose lives are diminished by the tyranny of thinness, this harrowing novel about a young woman's anguished battle with anorexia is by turns crackling, acrid, and darkly comic. Life-Size shoots straight for the heart of our country's obsession with food and image.
Reviews:
With nightmarish accuracy and bleak wit, this first novel--a Literary Guild selection in cloth--chronicles the traumatic hospitalization of an anorexic 25-year-old graduate student.
