With a sharp insight and a delightful wit, KATHERINE HEINY's Lizzie embarks on a transformative journey of self-discovery. Despite her online dating endeavors, she hesitates to share her pictures due to her fear of rejection, as society often perpetuates the notion that beauty is synonymous with slimness. Driven by an unyielding determination, Lizzie begins a rigorous weight loss regimen, meticulously tracking her caloric intake and monitoring her physical progress. However, her pursuit of physical transformation comes with a bittersweet validation from her mother, friends, husband, and even her own reflection in the mirror. Despite her significant weight loss, Lizzie struggles to shake off the label of \"fat girl\" that has haunted her for years. In this poignant and darkly humorous novel, MONA AWAD masterfully portrays a young woman whose life is hijacked by her relentless struggle to conform to societal expectations. Through Lizzie's poignant narrative, AWAD explores the complexities of body image, self-worth, and the pressures of societal norms, leaving a lasting impact on readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 182g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 x 128 x 19 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781804548240\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mona Awad","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44098332721402,"sku":"9781804548240","price":7.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1673617891333_book.jpg?v=1674084417","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/13-ways-of-looking-at-a-fat-girl-9781804548240","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
