Hunger Strike The Anorectic''s Struggle As a Metaphor for Our Age

Riassunto

In this classic text, originally published in 1986, The author brilliantly examines the anorectic's struggle. Anorexia is a battle; a battle to be thin; a battle of wills, denial versus desire. It is also about control; by conquering feelings of hunger, the anorectic woman aspires to conquer her emotional feelings as well.
