- More about Nervosa

Publisher: Street Noise Books
Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder that is not a phase, fad, or choice but a debilitating illness manifested in a distorted relationship with food. It is often a puzzle for doctors, therapists, parents, and friends, and those who suffer from it are belittled or misunderstood by society and the healthcare system meant to treat it. Nervosa is a no-holds-barred, richly textured portrait of one young woman's experience. In her vividly imagined retelling, Hayley Gold lays bare a callous medical system seemingly disinterested in the very patients it is supposed to treat. She also traces how her own life was irrevocably damaged by both the system and her own disorder. With brutal honesty and witty sarcastic humor, Gold offers a remarkably candid exploration of the search for hope in the darkness.
