Helen doesn\'t want to stay in the Fattening hut.
The Fattening Hut is a lyrical and timeless tale about a teenage girl who struggles to reclaim her independence, her body, and her soul..
Lonely, scared, and feeling confined by her family, culture, and tradition, she fights for a chance to be educated, young, and free.
When she learns the terrible secret the Fattening hut harbors, Helen becomes even more defiant and confused.
Why must she marry so soon--and gorge on rich meals for months, until she\'s heavy and round, like a good bride? Like her mother and sister before her, like all the women of her tribe.
She\'s told her mother that she\'s too young, not ready for it.
