Hunger is a deeply personal Memoir from one of our finest writers, and tells a story that hasn\'t yet been told but needs to be..
With the bracing candor, vulnerability, and authority that have made her one of the most admired voices of her generation, Roxane explores what it means to be overweight in a time when the bigger you are, the less you are seen.
In Hunger, she casts an insightful and critical eye on her childhood, teens, and twenties--including the devastating act of violence that acted as a turning point in her young life--and brings readers into the present and the realities, pains, and joys of her daily life.
As a woman who describes her own Body as wildly undisciplined, Roxane understands the tension between desire and denial, between self-comfort and self-care.
