Hunger : a memoir of (my) body / Roxane Gay - First edition. - New York : Harper, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers , 2017 - 306 p. ; 22 cm
Roxane Gay addresses the experience of living in a body that she calls 'wildly undisciplined.' She casts an insightful and critical eye over her childhood, teens, and twenties - including the devastating act of violence that was a turning point at age 12 - and brings readers into the present and the realities, pains, and joys of her daily life. With candor, vulnerability, and authority, Roxane explores what it means to be overweight in a time when the bigger you are, the less you are seen.
