'A beautiful, necessary book' ROXANE GAY'Luminous... Full of sharp insight and sly humour' KATHERINE HEINYLizzie doesn't like the way she looks. Though she dates guys online, she's afraid to send pictures: no-one wants a fat girl. So Lizzie starts to lose weight. With punishing drive she counts almonds consumed and pounds dropped, navigating double-edged validation from her mother, her friends, her husband and her own reflection in the mirror. But no matter how much she loses, will she ever see herself as anything other than a fat girl? In this darkly funny, deeply resonant novel, Mona Awad delivers a tender and moving depiction of a young woman whose life is hijacked by her struggle to conform.

Recenzii

In subject and voice, there are echoes of Margaret Atwood's The Edible Woman and Janice Galloway's The Trick Is to Keep Breathing, but neither has the wit of 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl
Honest, searing, and necessary... 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl peels back the curtain on the struggles of entering womanhood from body image, to relationships, to merely navigating the oh-so-cruel world
Awad deftly captures the many indignities that she - that women - experience around food and weight... Simultaneously tart and tender, 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl is stunning
Shocking, sad, important and tender; this is a powerful rollercoaster of a read
[A] clever debut... The themes may be sobering but Awad examines them with a deliciously wry humour
The sharpness of Awad's humour, incorporates scathing cultural commentary as well as creating, through acidic wit, a credible internal landscape for her tormented protagonist.
A beautiful, necessary book
Luminous... Full of sharp insight and sly humour
