(In)digestion in Literature and Film: A Transcultural Approach is a captivating collection of essays that delves into the exploration of disordered eating practices in diverse geographic regions, including Brazil, Eastern Europe, France, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, South Korea, Taiwan, and the United States. Despite the geographical diversity, these essays share a common theme of questioning the representation of disordered eating in literary and filmic works. Through a comprehensive analysis, the collection challenges the traditional notions of disorder, shedding the pathological and stigmatizing labels associated with non-normative eating behaviors. Instead, it redefines disorder as an act of resistance and defiance against restrictive sociocultural, political, and economic norms. The essays highlight taboo practices of food consumption, rejection, and avoidance as expressions of resistance and defiance, challenging the dominant order of operations. As a result, disorder is no longer seen as a state of being out of order, but rather as an act against the dominant order of operations. The collection's focus shifts from the eater as the embodiment of disorder to the problematic norms that define behaviors as such. This innovative approach to (in)digestion in literature and film offers a fresh perspective on the complex relationship between food, culture, and identity, challenging the dominant narratives and promoting a more inclusive and diverse understanding of disordered eating practices.
