Product Description

Synopsis
Kate Chisholm was 24 when she was first hospitalized with anorexia nervosa. At the time she desperately wanted to eat but had lost the ability to do so; locked in her solitary battle with food, she had come to see it as the enemy, the means of her destruction. This is a different sort of anorexia book. "My Hungry Hell" is not simply about recovery. Journeying back into the mindset of her 24-year-old self, Kate seeks to relive the experience of anorexia and, with the help of those suffering from the disease now, to explain its cruel contradictions.
